Buhay Khulay Rakhi (let the doors stay open)
Join Director, Nida Mehboob, and Producer, Ali Usman Qasmi, for a screening of Buhay Khulay Rakhi (let the doors stay open).
Buhay Khulay Rakhi is a documentary film that narrates stories of violence, displacement, and sometimes forced reunions. It covers the experiences of people committing acts of brutal violence while also showcasing stories of affection, care, and love. Amidst the chaotic violence that erupted during the Partition, thousands of women and children were abducted or separated from their families. While there has been significant academic and literary focus on the women forced to live with their abductors, the stories of Partition's children have often been forgotten or overlooked.
