Wishbone (2023)
Six-year-old Ilkham is spending his summer vacation in the village, but he's feeling homesick, missing his parents terribly. Grandparents are shielding a child from the harsh reality, all while grappling with their own grief over the recent loss of their children in a plane crash. In an effort to cheer up his grandson, Grandfather Rasim remembers the legendary game “Wishbone” which starts a series of wish fulfillments. At first, Rasim's wife Sufia doesn't like what's happening, but gradually the game begins to transform the lives and aspirations of the entire family and the entire village in the most incredible way.
