বাংলা

ছোট্ট একটি মেয়ে তার আঁকা ছবি তার পরিবারের সকলকে দেখাতে চাচ্ছে। কিন্তু সবাই বেশ ব্যস্ত মুঠোফোন আর টেলিভিশন নিয়ে। সে তার দাদার কাছে ছুটে যায় যিনি কিনা কিচ্ছুক্ষণ আগেই সবার নজর এড়িয়ে চলে গিয়েছেন। প্রযুক্তি আমাদের উপকারে আসলেও, কিভাবে আমাদের অপকার করছে তা এই চলচ্চিত্রের গল্পের মধ্যে দিয়ে উঠে আসে।
