In Bangladesh, two sisters hurry home one afternoon. At first, nothing seems unusual as they bicker in typical sibling fashion (“Come quick, or you’re dead!”) and go about their routine. But as writer-director Nuhash Humayun’s horror short Moshari continues, it becomes clear that something is wrong in their world. Apocalyptically wrong.

“Moshari” translates to “mosquito net,” and it’s the most important thing to have around you as the dark of night falls. Because if you don’t protect yourself... watch and see!

MOSHARI

20+ festivals, 10 awards and counting. The first Oscar® Qualifying film in Bangladesh history. in MOSHARI : Two sisters are forced inside a mosquito net (moshari)…

Humayun’s excellently tense short came to io9's attention thanks to Short of the Week; it also won a jury prize in the “Midnight Shorts” category at this year’s South by Southwest Film Festival, which praised it for its “fresh take on blood sucking creatures set in an non-traditional post-apocalyptic world.”

It’s rare event to see any cinema from Bangladesh make it stateside, much less a horror film—so for fans of horror hailing from non-Western countries, Moshari is a treat. A terrifying treat. A treat that will also make you wish little kids would just do what they’re told when there are monsters around, dammit. Watch it in the darkest room possible to make sure you don’t miss any details!

No, this short horror is actually not about horror and certainly not about 1971. Within it's 20 minutes run it evokes multiple problem currently facing the world. Climate change(water clogged areas), anti-colonialism(reference to Europe, America have fallen), anti-racism(I can't breath), women's sexual abuse(they are like old men like young..), women's empowerment(women can only depends on women for safety shown here two sisters fighting the evil monster) as well as an underlying message that before we overcome 'evil monsters' we have to learn to tolerate each other which was allegorically shown here by the clash of personality of two sisters. It's actually the non-horror theme packed here skillfully under the guise of horror that is winning the praise and awards. Cinematography is also good and fear effect also present which make it a successful horror yet a lot to ponder about on various issues.
