The Day Shall Dawn is a 1959 Pakistani Bengali-Urdu language drama film directed by A. J. Kardar. The film was selected as the Pakistani entry for the Best Foreign Language Film at the 32nd Academy Awards, but was not accepted as a nominee. It was also entered into the 1st Moscow International Film Festival where it won a Golden Medal. The film was featured in British Film Institute's 2002 critics' poll of "Top ten Pakistani films of all times".

Production

The Day Shall Dawn was very much a co-production between the two halves of what was then a geographically divided Pakistani state (now independent Pakistan and Bangladesh). The film was shot in Dhaka, East Pakistan (now Bangladesh) by the East Pakistan Film Development Corporation by a director from Lahore (in West Pakistan) and scripted in the Urdu language, which is a link language or lingua franca in the West.

The film depicts the daily lives of East Pakistani fishermen in the village of Saitnol (near Dhaka) and their struggles with loan sharks. The script was inspired by an original story by Bengali author Manik Bandopadhyay. According to Indian film critic Saibal Chatterjee, it is the only known neo-realist film produced in Pakistan at that time.
