This work was about an unfortunate situation in an Art College in Chittagong, the second biggest city in Bangladesh. For some internal trouble in making decision of the teachers of the two Art Institutions in Chittagong the student of the Art College had suffered around 5 years and not allowed in attending examination, neither getting admitted nor passing the classes. I took interviews and photos of the students and included light, photographs, sound and the video with the cutout figures made out of corrugated board to show the frustration of the students.I did the performance with the work in that particular Art College
