OVER - 2011 - Director
'Over' is a critical commentary on the typical hawkish attitude of the general public living on both the sides of the 63 year old India Pakistan border. The purpose of this film is to establish the fact that this attitude, which is a product of the instrumental thinking of the establishments of the two sides, has caused enough damage to the lives and emotions of the people of the two nations. And its high time that this game must be "over".
