Synopsis: Sultana’s Dream reimagines Rokeya Sakhawat Hossain’s 1905 feminist science-fiction story from within the lived histories of South Asian Muslim womanhood. The film approaches Ladyland not as an abstract feminist utopia, but as an inherited dream shaped by the intimate, subversive worlds of Muslim women: a world of survival, imagination, and radical possibility.
