Today, I See the Mirror is a film that tells the story of a Rohingya family living in the refugee camp of Cox’s Bazar—the largest in the world—established in 2017 following the violent persecution of the minority in Myanmar. The camp, overcrowded and closed off, is marked by forced marriages, human trafficking, and mounting tensions between identity and survival. The film follows Yoshin, his wife Tasmida, and their children, Sahab and Abu, as they face social pressures, environmental dangers, and decisions that could tear them apart. Through a hybrid narrative approach, the project explores the meaning of family as both a space of protection and fragility, questioning collective identity and the relationship between humans and a threatened natural world—symbolized by Asian elephants, guardians of an ancestral memory now at risk. An intimate and powerful story that reflects the condition of an entire people.
