The Art of Cinema ft. Aleem Bukhari

How far can we push cinema when we start understanding it as an art? Why is Cannes such a big deal? And who decides what cinema "makes it"?  In today's episode host Anmol Irfan is joined by Aleem Bukhari ,a Pakistani filmmaker, and the writer-director of the short horror film, Karmash. Aleem's work pushes the boundaries of what many South Asians consider to be cinema, and asks a very important question, Who are we looking to satisfy with the art we create?  By exploring the power of film as an art medium and a way of expression, Aleem takes us through his career path and journey - the highs and the lows. This episode is all about staying true to your creative process and creating for yourself, and Karmash's global success is proof that it works.
