"We realized its high time that we just put all of this together because each film coming out of Kashmir is talking about a point of view which is very different from the other and it is important that we as a society get to see these seven, eight, ten and twelve films together and get all these divergent points of view. There is not just one point of view, there are multiple narratives coming out of Kashmir," said Pankaj Rishi Kumar, a documentary filmmaker.
