It’s the time of year when I get to pretend I’m hard done by; slaving away in darkened cinemas, gorging on the finest films the Times BFI 52nd London Film Festival has to offer. The upside to my valiant sacrifice is that I’m a sharing kinda guy:
After many years working as a successful Pakistani Television director, Mehreen Jabbar moved to the cinematic feature with her debut Ramchand Pakistani, based on the true story of a father and young son imprisoned for crossing the Pakistan/India border and the mother/wife who waits in hope of their return.
