Maddha Bitta is about the middle class community and more particularly about a middle-income rural family that succumbs to sinister village community politics and lascivious ploys of a son of one of the community leaders. The victim family comprises a father and his college-going daughter. The father dies out of shame cast on him and his daughter’s characters regarding an event of sexual harassment while the daughter is forced to move out.
Looking for a livelihood in Dhaka city the daughter finds her ordeals getting worse at the hands of similar lustful men. Even though one man comes to her rescue by marrying her other men do not let her breather easily and consequently she resorts back to her ancestral homeland and before her father’s graveyard. The film casts Elina Shammi in the lead role.
