Xcellent cinematic-xecution by Manoj Bajpai,Dipak Dobriyal,Kumud Mishra,Manav Kaul n others. Ably uplifted by a haunting background-score,some crispy dialogues by Piyush Mishra. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Beautiful movie of the journey and bonding between comrades as they struggle to escape illegal post-war POW camps to return to India. Terrific screenplay, masterful direction, astounding cinematography, and amazing performances! Though the Pakistani army are the antagonists, the movie makes a good effort to not generalize the entire country's population by showing some citizens striving to end the illegal practice. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member This movie was just outstanding. I feel so bad for the 54 refugees. I learned from this and I am really glad they made this movie. I'm sorry for all these people. I wish I could do something. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Read all reviews
