Freerunner (2015)
The short film here is part of a multimedia documentary I
directed and co-produced with Sanya Mansoor in Kashmir, India,
with the support of Northwestern University Medill School of
Journalism.
The long political conflict in Kashmir has taken tens of
thousands of lives. Trust between Kashmiris and the Indian state
that controls them continues to decline, especially among youth
who’ve seen violence their entire lives. Among the pain, a group
of young men seek fellowship through an uncommon sport -
parkour.
