Bengali Film 'How Are You Feroz' Explores Parsi Identity
Imagine a movie about a man named Feroz who sells old, special items.
He's part of a small group of people called Parsis.
The movie shows how he feels about his job, the things he sells, and his community that is getting smaller.
Feroz has to sell some of his most prized possessions for money, which is tough because each item has a special story.
