The Lives of Others

Seven-year-old Mim stands next to her older sister, Naima, as they wait at a train station in Dhaka, Bangladesh, on the eve of Eid al-Adha. Mim and her mother had travelled to the capital city to pick up Naima, who helps the family by working in the garment industry, and were waiting for a train to return to their village to celebrate the holiday.
