Pakistani films are making us all proud, Farhan Alam’s Saawan bagged major accolades in international film festivals around the world and Jami won recognition for Moor.  Three Pakistani documentaries have been selected which will go for screening this year at the prestigious Vancouver Film Festival. Names of the docuamentaries are Divide, Armed with Faith and The Invisible Line. Two of them are short while one is full length film which deals with the social-cultural issues of Pakistan.

 

Divide talks about sectarian clashes through a narrative of two neighbors living peacefully in Gilgit before hell broke loose in 2011, while Armed with Faith is a feature documentary which is made on the Pakistani bomb disposal unit by Asad Faruqi.

The Invisible Line, similarly like Divide is short documentary, it delves deeply into the unmarked boundary between India and Pakistan in the sea and its cruel impacts  on the lives of innocent fishermen and their families when unkowingly cross that unmarked boundary line.
