Dapaan

In July, 2020, three year old Ayaad became the sole witness of an incident which resulted in the shooting of his grandfather by the Jammu and Kashmir security officials. In Ayaad, I find the echo of Agha Shahid Ali’s Rizwan, who speaks the truth of Kashmir. The film questions the harsh realities that are hidden in the alluring landscapes of Kashmir.
