In 'I Am Not the River Jhelum', the days are like nights and the nights are like nightmares. Writer-director Prabhash Chandra imagines the Kashmir Valley as a place dipped in grey and soaked in unending uncertainty.

Shot on streets that are empty save for the presence of soldiers and inside dimly lit homes in which characters dream of astronomy and peace, the film gives a powerful and haunting sense of what it means to live in one of the most heavily militarised zones on the planet.
