Even when tomorrow is uncertain, we still have a reason to keep going.

The Days We Still Have

The Days We Still Have is an emotional short film about determination, family, and hope amid the conflict affecting the UAE. As a student's education shifts online, his daily routine is disrupted by uncertainty, fear, and constant news updates. Miles away, his father, an overseas Filipino worker, continues working whenever it is safe, carrying the responsibility of providing for his family while facing the same fears. Meanwhile, a teacher struggles to keep her students motivated despite the circumstances surrounding them. As the student begins questioning the purpose of building a future he cannot be certain of, a heartfelt conversation with his father changes his perspective. He slowly realizes that determination is not about knowing what tomorrow holds, but finding the courage to keep going despite uncertainty.
