| This was the Invitation! |
So, lately I have been
eagerly waiting for this movie! Basically, the whole team of this movie belongs
to Hazara Community; they're based in Quetta, Pakistan! Since many people don't
know about their culture and their identity, it is hard for them to promote
themselves to others... though after watching this movie, it won't be hard for
them to do it later in life.
On
7 of August, at 9 PM the movie was released. The event was held at a school in
Quetta. Many people went there to watch the movie. I wish I could, but since
I'm not there, I wasn't able to. The movie itself tells us about the Bomb blast
at Alamdar Road, Quetta, Pakistan (to get more information read this
post: http://timetochatnow.blogspot.co.uk/2013/08/howdy-hope-struggle.html )
on that post, you can easily get the gist of the movie and learn about the
meaning behind it. Not only was the movie focusing on the blast but it also
tells us about how education can make you achieve higher! One of the best thing
I learnt from this movie was that even if your life is in danger, even if the
enemy is much powerful than you, you can always turn your face towards
Education and make yours and others life brighter!
In
the movie, they also mentioned another incident (more information here: http://timetochatnow.blogspot.co.uk/2013/07/another-story.html )
they talked about how many precious students lost their lives in the
University's Bus.

Although
the movie is in their native language Persian, in some parts Urdu has also been
used. They have added subtitles as well, but some of the things might be
unclear for those who don’t understand their language.
Many
people might think why am I sharing this with you, Well, let me tell you
briefly: Basically, Hazaras; mainly in Quetta, Pakistan has been targeted from
many years. They were and still brutally killed by different groups of Taliban
in Pakistan. Now, I don't know much about Politics and I don't even want to!
The Pakistani Government has failed to protect the civilians, especially
Shias/Shiite of Pakistan. Those Hazaras, they have been killed by bomb blasts, firing,
and target killing! Why isn't the Government doing anything? Many Hazaras are
going to other countries for more security, they mainly go to Australia, but
now not even that is possible (read here: http://timetochatnow.blogspot.co.uk/2013/07/refuge-save-humanity.html )
I
tried to tell the story as much as I could because I know many will not
understand the language:
-The
movie shows three main characters, Meisam, Karrar and Hadi; they aren't really
best friends from the beginning, but as time flies by they become great
friends!
-Although
one of the friend (Meisam) who tries hard to learn and pass his chemistry test,
but the other two friends; Karrar and Hadi , they don't really care, even when
their test is near, they both go out without learning anything! Both of them
photocopy the Books and then print it off so that later on, they can take the
printed information and cheat in the test!
-Those
of which who cheated (Karrar and Hadi) get high marks and one of them (Hadi)
even get the First position! The teacher being really happy with his results
gives him a red stoned ring as a gift!
-Meisam
who is smarter than the other two, talk to them about how will they do the exam
this time? Would they still cheat? What will they achieve by cheating? What
will happen to them when they don't know what to do in the Job field?
-Both
of them (Karrar and Hadi) ignores Meisam! How will they revise anyway? They
both have already decided that this time they will cheat as well, just like
they did in the chemistry test. This time they'll give a worker, who works in
the Uni where they will be taking their exam, they'll give the worker the
cheating papers and somehow the worker will try to give it to them during
examination.
-On
10 of January, all three of them come together and try to learn for last time
because the exam is near! They finish their revising and they get up to pray.
First Hadi takes off his ring and puts in near the sink, when he is finished,
he then dries his face. On the other hand, Meisam (the smart one) is about to
do the Wudu as well but Hadi gets a call about the blast. Hadi in a hurry
forgets his ring and runs off to see the aftermath!
-Hurriedly,
Meisam wears the ring, and tells Karrar that Hadi has went to the location of
the Blast! Meisam tells Karrar to put all the books in hi bag so that they both
and go the location where Hadi has went.
-Karrar
is busy putting all the books in his bag, so Meisam runs off quickly...
-Then
comes the dreadful part. Both friends Karrar and Hadi are shown in a car
driving to the graveyard where their best friend Meisam rests in peace. They
both cry... Words can't describe the feelings! At that moment, the audience can
see the Soul of Meisam talking to Hadi and Karrar, but the characters in the
movie can't see him. Meisam tells them both to learn because by learning they
can achieve great things in life! He talks about how his time is finished on
this Earth but that doesn't mean others should stop living their lives.
-After
12 years 2025- Hadi now gets a job as an engineer and Karrar is an Architect
now! This shows how they changed their lives but learning. It will be hard, but
by learning you're going to make your life so much better than it is now!
-The
Soul of Meisam again appears in Hadi's (Engineer) office. Meisam tells Hadi
about the hard times he has seen. Hadi asks Meisam to show him, Meisam takes
Hadi 12 years back, to the place where the blast occurred on 10 of January!
Meisam, now dead, tells Hadi about how he was helpless and couldn't help the
injured ones who were lying on the floor asking for help!
-Meisam
takes Hadi to another place as well and talks about the University's Bus Blast
(http://timetochatnow.blogspot.co.uk/2013/07/refuge-save-humanity.html )
and tells Hadi that rather than revising for his exams, both Hadi and Karrar
went out for fun! Why didn't they try harder? Why weren't they revising while
they should be?
-At
the end, Hadi has learnt his lesson! Meisam now says his good bye to his Best
Friend!
Moral
of the story is to never lose hope! Try harder! Achieve more! Get Educated as
Education is the key to success!

| Cheating will not get you far! Learning will help you forever. Though it might be hard at first, but it will get better and you'd be much happier! |
