“Mastul” has not been selected for the main competition at Kazan but for a special category.
The narrative centres on Maqbool, a compassionate cook portrayed by Fazlur Rahman Babu, who befriends Noora, a young stowaway. Their bond challenges the ship's hierarchy, particularly with a power-hungry helmsman who suspects Maqbool of espionage. The film explores themes of trust, compassion, and the complexities of human relationships.
