The festival will show a selection of Pakistani films, such as the teleplay Gidh (Vulture) by Kanwal Khoosat, the socially aware short Permanent Guest (Mustaqil Mehmaan) by Sana Jafri, and the Sindhi-language movie Indus Echoes by Rahul Aijaz.
Gidh examines the psychological strain between two women, while Permanent Guest explores the long-term effects of childhood sexual abuse on individuals.
Indus Echoes shares five narratives along the Indus River, offering audiences worldwide a glimpse into Sindhi culture and ecological issues.
MISAFF also hosts a two-day symposium that unites emerging Pakistani filmmakers and industry professionals.
This helps cultural exchange and gets the filmmakers noticed throughout the world.
The festival highlights Pakistan’s cinematic ambition, diversity, and growing presence on the world stage.
