That changed the course of their lives and also the course of the history of her land.

The film on Hasina has won international acclaim because it reflected the untold stories of her life as the daughter of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman.

In an attempt to get a peek into her life, the camera followed her inside her kitchen and library.

It took around five years to make the one-hour-ten-minute film, which captures through Hasina's eyes the heyday of freedom struggle in Bangladesh, the capturing of her father by the Pakistani forces, and finally, the assassination of Bangabandhu and his entire family.

According to film buffs, people had earlier thought that it would be a typical narrative on the prime minister.

But, it is less-explored aspects of her life that intrigued them.

The movie, produced by two of the trustees if CRI, offered the first-person narrative of Sheikh Hasina and her sister Sheikh Rehana on how the world seemed upside down when they heard the news of the assassination of their father and the entire family, how they struggled to get back to the very country liberated by their father, and how Sheikh Hasina reclaimed her space and became the prime minister.
