DISCO OBU

A journalist captures a day in the life of a former child actor turned autorickshaw driver. Over the course of the day their relationship is tested.

A miniature study in the ephemeral nature of fame and journalistic ethics, this graduation film charts the clash between a documentarian’s preconceived ideas and his philosophically-inclined subject’s refusal to play along. Told with humor and pathos, Disco Obu finds a terrific lead in Amjad Prawej.
