Description

To please the God, one religion must worship her, another must kill her. To save one life, one must sacrifice another. Mohesh, a beloved cow owned by a poor Hindu villager, is prayed to as a God. When she has to be sold, her new owner sacrifices her in the name of God. A neorealist film, shot on location in rural Bangladesh, featuring both professional and non-professional actors.
