A boy waits for his mother to return home. “Bol 2 (the Rape)” is the second of three separate encounters that make up “Bol (Speak!),” a short dramatic experimental triptych on the nature of violence. Inspired by the Pakistani Marxist poet, Faiz Ahmed Faiz’s poem “Bol”, and drawn from real events, this segment uses puppetry to comment on the increasing ubiquity and tenor of violence in South Asia. The extended triptych, “Bol (Speak!),” is also available for distribution through CFMDC.
