Ahmad (Ahmad Razvi) is a Pakistani-born cart vendor who sells bagels and coffee in Manhattan, a humble and bleak means of a living that affords him little comfort. In his former life in Pakistan, he was a rock star. He was also married and had a child. Now his wife is dead, his in-laws refuse him visits with his son, and his job is all he seems to have, but he seems content with his fate. However, a chance encounter with a businessman may change Ahmad's fortune -- for better, or worse.

Critics Consensus

This compassionate portrait of a New York City street vendor is as beautiful as it is melancholy.

Marc Savlov Austin Chronicle A slow-burn stunner, where nothing much of consequence happens, except life itself. Rated: 3.5/5 •  Jan 4, 2007 Full Review Peter Hartlaub San Francisco Chronicle The makers of Man Push Cart seem so dedicated to making a film that defies Hollywood conventions that the finished product lacks enough entertainment value to justify price of admission. Rated: 2/4 •  Dec 8, 2006 Full Review

Shioka O It was miserable than I thought. /given that low budget and limited production period, this film has a true indie vibe. Slow-burn and realistic. Nothing fun at all. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review nilufer e Even though it made me be thankful for whatever I have in this world, didn't give me much emotion as I anticipated. Acting was okay and the story was so so. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review
