Autumn’s Final Country / Film
Autumn’s Final Country is the touching story of Indu, Zarina, Shahnaz and Anju, four women who suffer displacement in the conflict-ridden Indian state of Jammu and Kashmir. Recorded as testimonials for the South Asia Court of Women (Dacca, Aug.2003), the film explores the lives of each woman as she relates the circumstances leading to her rootlessness, and reveals an intimate dimension of the Kashmir conflict, raising questions about patriarchal values and power, communal identities, patriotism and war.
Discussion follows after the screening with filmmaker, Sonia Jabbar who will be joined by: Farooq Kathwari, Chairman & CEO Ethan Allen Inc. and Chairman, Kashmir Study Group Maya Chadda, Professor of political science, William Paterson University of New Jersey Mallika Dutt, Executive Director, Breakthrough (Moderator)
