You Don't Know Me (2004), a moving 20-minute dramatic short on child sexual abuse in the Maldives, it follows a few days in the life of a 14-year old girl living in the capital Male. This short film has evocative imagery, and moving performances by a cast of non-actors. Shocking but subtle, it is based on an anecdotal study carried out by UNICEF, and is used as a curtain-raiser for their workshops. 30 Dhuvas (2002), a feature-length theatrically-released film which didn't bring in audiences but received acclaim from a host of potential customers kickstarting, in effect, Club Hulhevi's move into documentary filmmaking.

"You Don't Know Me is a well-researched and well-presented piece of artwork, looking into the issues associated with child sexual abuse. While highlighting the plight of the abused children, You Don't Know Me also conveys the importance of listening, believing, communicating and being there for these children. It can also be used as an entry into discussing the acknowledged but usually denied facts of child sexual abuse that exist in our society" Mohamed Naeem, UNICEF |
