Pakistan’s First Film School Begins by Learning Documentaries

The students at the National College of Arts’ (NCA) Film and TV Department have made short documentaries on noted personalities of the Walled City as their first assignment at the new department. The department, the only one of its kind in Pakistan, was established in January this year and enrolled 16 students selected from all over Pakistan. The idea for such a department was floated in 2000, and a five-member committee was formed for consultation.
