There is a story in every family in Kashmir Valley. And The Homecoming by Shashi Warrier produces a picture perfect scene of horror in which all the families are going through from last two decades.
It is the story of one family, but also of the many families in Kashmir whose lives have been destroyed by decades of violence and uncertainty. Deeply moving and disturbingly honest, this is a haunting tale that is political yet profoundly personal, and tells of the pain and suffering that is a result of the cruelty—and ultimately the indifference—of the state.
