We are immensely proud of Abdullah Hafeez, who directed the film with the help of his team comprising Yusra Irfan, Namra Amir and Shayan Asif (Classes A1, XI and IX respectively). The film was showcased at the festival on October 6, 2018 at Cinepax Cinema Packages Mall, Lahore.

It is pertinent to mention here that the film was selected out of a total of 2765 entries from 29 countries across the world through the Filmmaking Competition for Young 2018 as part of the festival. The LICFF not only promotes the culture of film watching, media literacy and alternative learning among children and young people but it also provides them a platform where they are able to showcase their talent of filmmaking.
