Promoting bilingualism In Sri Lanka is necessary to break the language barrier in our society and to build a sense of equality, mutual understanding, and social integration across different communities. This short film is about a Tamil boy who cannot either understand or speak Sinhala Language. He Visits Colombo to arrange to go abroad. His journey by bus in Colombo with a conductor, who speaks Sinhala and Hindi, but not Tamil a vernacular language, causes him mental stress. The indifference of the conductor towards the passengers illuminates the importance of bilingualism for co-existence In Sri Lanka. When different groups,Sinahalese,Tamil,Musim and a Hindi speaker communicate as shown in the film, their shared communication allow them to understand each other better and encourage cooperation at many levels.
