How does your product use or challenge conventions and how does it represent social groups or issues?
- 1. How does your product use or challenge conventions and how does it represent social groups or issues? By Muhammad Fasih
- 2. Social Issues The Social Issue we chose is not very common in this modern society, but it is quite popular in rural areas of Sindh in Pakistan. When we were doing our research in this Issue we found that about 6 million of Pakistanis don't know about this term, Haq Bukshi (No right to wed). The best way to create an awareness of this issue is to represent this through a film.
- 4. Haq Bukshi (No right to wed) is the main issue we are addressing in our opening scene.
- 5. During our Researching Period, I red many articles on the internet about this issue. Some popular Media groups, such as Daily Times has written an article on this, which inspired us to narrate this issue through our opening scene. I have seen many documentary videos on Youtube highlighting this issue in Pakistan.
- 6. What is our Social Issue? Our Opening Scene is based on a social Issue of “Haq Bukshish (No right to wed)” It is mostly seen in the rural areas of Pakistan. Haq Bukshish is an act of marriage with the Holy Quran (Holy Book of Islam) of a girl.In this type of marriage, young girls are asked to dedicate themselves to memorising the Holy Quran.Women who are married to the Holy Quran are not allowed to have a relationship with a man or to marry anybody. This usually happens to keep the wealth and property in the family.
- 7. How did we represented this Social Issue? We felt that this issue is quite complicated as it relates some Religious Concepts which are misused by the society, so we spend a lot of our time in Research Work to gain perfection in our subject. We highlighted this issue with a melodrama storyline and maintained it in such a way that the issue could be communicated easily. We kept the conventions of our film in our mind so that it doest go against it.
- 8. Conventions We generally received the traditions from this Hollywood Drama Film, The Beaver. One of the significant purpose for this was the circumstance of the suicide as a result of wretchedness and family issues are fundamentally the same as our opening sequence.
- 9. We can see comparable thought on the scene in this Hollywood Drama Film "12 Years A Slave." Specially our opening scene, where the girl is demonstrated a slave of her dad which can be found in this motion picture too.
- 10. Costume We matched our conventions with “12 Years a Slave” as it has shown cultural dresses. We have also shown the Sindhi cultural dresses.
- 11. We likewise alluded a Bollywood Movie Manje-Daro, which demonstrates the sindhi culture. This motion picture made things simple for as we could contrast and relate our generation with it.
