Brief Explanation

The film tells a story about a little boy, Aiman who is experiencing Raya without his father for the first time. He tries all sorts of ways to reach his father but fails. He grows frustrated because Raya doesn’t feel the same anymore. In his anger, he blames his father for abandoning him and ruining Raya forever. At his lowest, Aiman learns that Raya isn’t lost with his father, but lives through the traditions his father taught him.

The major challenge of the casting process was to find a boy who is old enough to understand the concept of loss, but young enough to interpret it in an innocent way. The boy had to have the dramatic chops too, to pull off some intense moments of anger and epiphany. Regular commercial talents weren't going to cut it for this role. That is why the team had to source for professional actors for this spot.
