Synopsis - As far as the story of the
film is concerned, it is narrated by the title of the film. Even if we
talk about this in nutshell, the story is based on true and painful
incidents, the suffering of which has been born by the families in
Lahore at the time of partition in 1947 and again on their bodies during
the anti-sikh genocide that broke in various parts of Hindustan
including Delhi in 1984. It was such a harrowing destruction that made
the Sikhs homeless in their own homeland.
We unwillingly born all the suffering
of whatever happened in 1947 and anti-sikh genocide of 1984 that
happened in Delhi and other parts of the country, and that was criminal
conspiracy made against a single community. Such incidents in our own
country raised many questions like Sikhs were the citizens of which
country? Whenever in any part of the world any community faces
oppression and injustice, it's but natural that the young generation
faces its impact. Therefore, the emotions developed in such
circumstances definitely have to show their results, which are part
of
this film.
The matter doesn't only end here,
when the youth of Punjab decided to punish the offenders of this
horrendous act. And in response to this our police began to kill
innocent people in police encounters in the name of eliminating the
terrorists. A ceaseless trend of painful killing of young people and
dishonoring of daughters and sisters began in police stations. This film
describes such realities. Today, the whole country knows very well that
the offenders of dreaded violence that occurred in Delhi and other
places of the country are still at large, and those police officers who
got promotions for fake police encounters are roaming with pride. Till
today several mothers are wondering in vain and still waiting for their
lost sons, even many families are going from pillar to post to get
justice.
The story of this film starts from
Canada and ends in Canada itself, which contains the suffering of that
woman who has seen the suffering of 47 to 84 with her eyes. We have
tried that this feature film of ours became a historical document and
also an advice for all those people who have suffered the pain of this
time period irrespective of their religion. A few lines of the title
song of this film, describe the story something like this:
'We have to bury the pain from 47 to 84,
This is a long story from happiness to sadness,
Now, whom I will say my homeland…………………'
