> AUTUMN'S FINAL COUNTRY followed by discussion by filmmaker SONIA

Autumn�s Final Country is the touching story of Indu, Zarina, Shahnaz and
Anju, four women who suffer displacement in the conflict-ridden State of Jammu
and Kashmir. Recorded as testimonials for the South Asia Court of Women(Dacca,
Aug.2003), the film explores the lives of each woman as she relates the
circumstances leading to her rootlessness, and reveals an intimate
dimension of the Kashmir conflict, raising questions about patriarchal values
and power,communal identities, patriotism and war.
SONIA JABBAR is an independent writer and filmmaker currently living and
working in KASHMIR. She received the WISCOM Scholar for Peace award in 2000.
