“Brillant coming-of-age story… ambitious drama… great performances… terrific young leads.”

JOANNA LUMLEY
“Quite wonderful: dark, unsettling, gripping, touching and stunningly shot, acted and edited. It’s story was very cleverly framed by the sorrowful situation in Kashmir, giving a glimpse of the endless nightmare that has descended on that Himalayan paradise. Bravo!”

They spend the night in the woods and wake in a mass grave among piles of bones and skulls of ‘disappeared’ men and the horrific realization that their fathers’ are among them.

LITTLE TERRORIST STORY :
Jamal, a 12 year old Muslim Pakistani mistakenly crosses the border between India and Pakistan, finding an unusual ally in a Hindu Brahmin, Bhola. Indian soldiers descend on Bhola’s village searching for the ‘terrorist’ who crossed over. His niece, Rani, insists they can’t let a Muslim into their Hindu home. With Bhola and Rani grappling with the consequences of harbouring a Pakistani and their deep-set prejudice against Muslims, Jamal’s only hope is the humanity shared by a people separated by artificial boundaries a long time ago.
