A man wakes up to find that his face is being stolen by shadows. “Bol 3 (the Mask)” is the final 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 folk dance 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.
