1979. A village in Pakistan. Ayesha, a middle-aged widow lives a quiet life with her 17-year old son Saleem who is in love with Zubeida, the neighbor's daughter.

As the events unfold, a well-kept secret emerges from Ayesha's past and changes her life and that of Saleem and Zubeida forever.

Check out this fascinating project!

'The 1947 Partition Archive is a citizen-powered non-profit organization dedicated to documenting, preserving and sharing eye witness accounts from all ethnic, religious and economic communities affected by the Partition of British India in 1947. We provide a platform for our fellow citizens to collect, archive and display oral histories that document not only Partition, but pre-Partition life and culture as well as post-Partition migrations and life changes.'

Join us in uncovering the people's history of Partition, one story at a time. Together, we are discovering our shared histories and preserving the last remaining memories of Partition before they are forever lost.
