Project Kashmir

From directors Senain Kheshgi and Geeta Patel comes Project Kashmir, the story of these two American friends from opposite sides of the divide who investigate the war in Kashmir. They discover that their friendship will be tested over deeply rooted religious, political and cultural biases that they never had to face in the U.S.

Beautifully lensed by Academy Award winner Ross Kauffman, the film captures the stunning beauty of Kashmir, while expertly interweaving deeply moving personal stories of Kashmiris with those of the two American women who strive to reconcile their ethnic and religious heritages with the violence that haunts their homeland.

Project Kashmir premiered in June 2008 at the Human Rights Watch Film Festival.
