The End of Flight
Our country has seen riots, wars, murders, rapes and even genocides, all of which have left behind millions of victims whose wounds may never heal. The Partition of India and the Second World War forced millions into political refuge, but today more than 60 years down the line there are few to tell the tale. This film is a short series of firsthand accounts of how they made their way into India against all odds.  

Language : English 
Year : 2009
Duration : 30 mins
Director : Tariq Thekaekara 

Dere-Tun-Dilli 
Eighty four-year old Bhagwani Taneja recalls the time when her entire community packed up their homes from Dera Ismail Khan, in Pakistan’s North West Frontier Province, and moved to Delhi during the Partition. As she faces the camera, Bhagwani talks about the tough time she and others from Dera faced while trying to build homes and new lives in a
divided nation. The community took their protest to the then Prime Minister Jawaharlal
Nehru’s bungalow who greeted them warmly and lent his garden for them to stay a
few nights. In the film, the makers have attempted to capture the turmoil that the Dera
community faced during this period even as the trauma of time remains lost to the
current generation.
