Indus Blues | Award-Winning Musical Feature Documentary | Pakistan | Director's Cut | [ Eng Sub

Indus Blues is a musical feature documentary highlighting the plight of the folk musicians and craftsmen of Pakistan and the state of their dying art.

The film created waves in both local and international media upon the release of its trailer and initiated the much-needed debate about the radicalization of the society in Pakistan.

The film has already received recognition with nominations at CPH_DOX-Copenhagen, DOKUARTS-Berlin, DOKUFest-Kosovo, DOCEDGE-Netherlands, WOMEX, Regina International Film Festival and Guam International Film Festival respectively and winning the Grand Jury Prize for Best Documentary Feature Crystal Award in the latter. The film has also won "Best Feature Documentary" and "Best Cinematography" Awards at Jaipur International Film Festival, India.

A journey spanning the 2,000-mile length of the Indus, it showcases the rich musical traditions across the diverse, and colorful cultures of Pakistan. The film not only presents their mesmerizing art but also shows the face of the underappreciated indigenous humanism in Pakistan.

The diverse cultures around Indus, with over 70 spoken languages, have deep roots going back centuries. Despite the richness of the various cultures flourishing along the mighty Indus river, their sounds have faded to the background in a world dominated by modern musical instruments.
