Neighbour: The Saga of Forced Conversions in Pakistan (Screening and Discussion)

» Join us for the screening of 'Hum Saya' (Neighbour), an award-winning documentary produced by the Centre for Social Justice (CSJ), which recently received the ‘Best Short Documentary on Human Rights’ award at the Venice Intercultural Film Festival 2023. The film, which has been screened at prestigious venues including the University of Oxford, sheds light on the harrowing stories of abduction, forced conversion, and forced marriage in Pakistan. Directed by Dawood Murad, 'Hum Saya' skillfully weaves together real-life accounts of the victims and their families, highlighting the role of neighbors and communities as the first line of protection for marginalized groups. Through the powerful narratives of individuals like Jamal Haider and the neighbor of Asif Masih, the film emphasizes the importance of solidarity and community support in combating this multi-faceted criminality. The screening will be followed by a panel discussion, offering a deep dive into the issues explored in the film and a chance to reflect on how we can champion human rights and social justice for marginalized groups in Pakistan. ● Panelists: » Tahira Abdullah » Peter Jacob » Farhatullah Babar » Pervez Hoodbhoy » Harris Khalique
