In this episode of Point of Entry into Screens and Realities, we welcome Syeda Bukhari Director of the South Asian Film Festival of Montreal. Together, we explore how independent cinema can serve as a powerful lens through which to reflect the complex realities of marginalized communities and challenge stereotypes.
From her role as a professor at Concordia University to her upcoming documentary on international students, Syeda shares why every story brought to the screen should have a purpose and leave a lasting impact.
