Britain’s First Pakistani Film Festival

via www.asiansinmedia.org

Titled Pehlee Dharkan (first heartbeat), the film festival intends to inform audiences and the wider community on what film-making in Pakistan really has to offer. The festival will screen contemporary films from the budding independent cinema movement; have a retrospective of classic Pakistani films; show short films and documentaries on political, environmental and health issues in Pakistan; and broadcast some films made by British Asians.
