Re: Revival of Pak film industry - absolutely necessary for our cultural development
funding. is. overrated. some of the best film concepts and short films are a result of the human minds working with the resources they have. that’s what film schools are all about. I’ve got faith in the things i’ve been seeing from independent filmmakers in pakistan from many cities. And i’m not talking about mummy-daddy filmmakers who made slackistan.
It’s growing. and it’s quality. They are ten times better then indian/pakistani films (and yes, the rest of the world can’t tell the difference between shahrukh khan dancing in tight jeans and shaan doing the same thing) in originality. With youtube and vimeo, they have an unlimited universal audience that is known as the residents of planet earth.
I personally am more about documentary makers from pakistan. Here’s an article about one of karachi firemen, for example.
