The documentary follows Muraad’s journey to uncover the traumatic memories of the police action in Hyderabad in 1948. Through his grandmother, Gulnar, a living repository of time, he connects to a violent past, forging a link to a history he only knew through hearsay. As she slowly recollects the indelible patches of a forsaken chapter in the history of the subcontinent, the past, present, and future are interwoven. As an auto-ethnographic work, the film juxtaposes personal anecdotes with historical context, providing a critical understanding of past events often absent in official accounts. Gulnar’s storytelling not only brings to light the emotional and psychological scars left by the action, but also embodies the resilience and continuity of cultural memory.
