Somewhere in Between

Director: Fatema Bharucha

Sakina, a young university student, struggles to find her place as she navigates new spaces, expectations, and her sense of self. Believing that removing the rida will help her fit in and perform better, she experiments with changing herself, only to realize that the challenges she faces exist beyond what she wears. Through setbacks, support, and reflection, Sakina learns to embrace her identity on her own terms and returns with renewed confidence, understanding that belonging comes from within, not from becoming someone else.
