UPDATES

Sorry to be incommunicado. We've been busy with screenings all around the country and overseas. After our sucessful Docuweek run, we screened the film in Amsterdam at IDFA, one of the most prestigious documentary film festivals in the world. It was an amazing experience with 4 sold out screenings and very interesting Q&A's after each screening.

You can find an article about our screening IDFA by Nisi Magazine here

We also recently held screenings of PROJECT KASHMIR in:

BERLIN at The One World Film Festival
SURINAME at The Back Lot Film Festival (in conjunction with IDFA)

And in the United States in:

Thank you to all of you who have attended screenings in the past few months. We want to especially thank those of you who have taken the time to write to us about your experience with conflict and your efforts to live communally with others.

Geeta and I would like to point you to a recent article written by Aarti Tikoo, our amazing Kashmiri Pandit friend who we met when we filmed in Kashmir. She was recently featured in Newsweek magazine where she writes an emotional piece about her feelings after the Mumbai attacks.
