JAMMU: After earning international acclaim with the world premiere in London, acclaimed Kashmiri short film “Tasrufdar: Djinns of Kashmir” is set to premiere in Srinagar later this month, with filmmaker Kapil Mattoo hoping the screening will start an honest dialogue among Kashmiris on memories, loss and reconciliation rooted in the events of 1990.
Describing the Kashmiri-language directorial as “more than a film”, Mattoo said “Tasrufdar” is an emotional journey that seeks to bring to the surface feelings that have remained buried for over three decades.
“It is an emotion for me. It is more than a film. I think it is a necessary conversation between two Kashmiris,” Mattoo told PTI in an interview here.
