This film by Athar Abbas and Bilal Abbas was one of the special mentions and won a special prize of Rs60,000 in the Dawn.com and Deutsche Welle video story contest, #ItHappensOnlyinPakistan on the theme #CreativeDistancing.

The Bismillah Tuck Shop in Islamabad may look small at first glance, but it supplies rations, groceries and food provisions to 145 families in the neighbourhood.

In this heartwarming film, we hear how the owner of the tuck shop has been personally delivering rations and supplies to several families that have been affected and are homebound due to Covid-19.

This man has been working as a frontline soldier in the fight against the impact of Covid-19, just like the country's many doctors, nurses, and security staff.

It Happens Only In Pakistan is a nationwide video story contest organised by Dawn.com and Deutsche Welle (DW), Germany's international broadcaster. Inspired by the stories of human generosity and perseverance that emerged during this pandemic, the special Lockdown Edition of the contest launched on the theme of #CreativeDistancing invited filmmakers to share positive stories of how they are creatively coping with the new reality while practicing physical distancing, or how those around them are turning these challenging times into those of opportunity and inspiration.

The contest accepted entries from June 22 and July 28, 2020.
