Bilal Khan

a roadside village along the Karakoram Highway, Pakistan

Bilal Khan is an eighteen-year-old trucker from a village along the Karakoram Highway. Each day, he meticulously checks his truck before taking on perilous journeys over high passes, transporting goods between Gilgit and Islamabad. His dedication to his job goes beyond earning a living; it's about fulfilling a promise to his mother and funding his younger sister's education. He experiences life in the silences, lying awake at night visualizing his route and fearing potential disasters.
