A world of money, power, dominance and conflict built around the garment scrap trade is coming to the big screen with Cut-Piece (CUT-PIECE), which will hit cinemas on 16 October during the Durga Puja festivities.
Directed and produced by Iffat Jahan Mom, the film is produced under Black Pepper Films. It stars Shifat Amin Shuvo, Nanjiba Torsa, Imran Ahmed Sowdagar, Bappi Ashraf, Saiful Kabir and Elina Shammi, among others.
The story centres on the world that has grown around the garment scrap trade, exploring its money, power, dominance and conflicts. The film focuses on a familiar yet relatively underexplored business world in Bangladeshi cinema.
Director and producer Iffat Jahan Mom said the garment scrap trade is a familiar reality in the city. However, she felt it was important to bring the people involved in the business, their economic and power relationships, and the conflicts within that world into mainstream cinema.
“That was where the journey of Cut-Piece began,” she said.
The film is now preparing for a Puja release. The makers plan to screen it across both multiplexes and single-screen cinemas, aiming to reach audiences from different sections of the country.
Cut-Piece arrives in cinemas on 16 October 2026.
