A House for Shahana follows the turbulent life of Dipa, a young divorced woman whose refusal to suffer silently makes her a misfit in a rural town in 90s Bangladesh. She is raised by weak and ineffectual parents in a peculiar family dynamic dominated by her maternal uncle and aunt. Under their authority, Dipa is married off to a widower in England. Dipa suffers, refuses to settle, and eventually escapes. Seven years later, Dipa has become a transformed and confident professional, yet she still must fight the social stigma and the burden of “ family honour ” to live on her own terms.
