A short film called Article 370 <\/strong>was released yesterday. Directed by Ibrahim Baloch, the film highlights the atrocities committed by the Indian army who uprooted the lives of the Kashmiris.<\/p>\n

Talking to the press, Ibrahim shared his thoughts and inspiration behind the short film.<\/p>\n

\u201cI started following the situation in Kashmir after India announced its decision and realized that it was primarily debated from a political perspective, I was more interested in the human side of the issue. So after doing some research, I came across stories of Kashmiri women in Srinagar who gave birth during the lock-down imposed by the Indian administration.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The main plot of the film revolves around a married woman living in the Indian occupied Kashmir, whose life is shattered after Indian government officials repudiated Article 370 of the Indian constitution. Thus, the Indian army placed the entire disputed region under lock-down. Actress Mariyam Nafees, who plays the lead character, said:<\/p>\n

\u201cThis film depicts the reality and current situation of Jammu and Kashmir,\u201d she said. \u201cThe twenty-minute visuals in the movie that show the suffering of a family in the region are full of human emotions. Projects like these are not undertaken too often.\u201d<\/p>\n

Be sure to check out this riveting short film.<\/p>\n
