Synopsis
A heartfelt documentary follows director Madhulika Jalali as she searches for her identity as a Kashmiri Pandit woman. In the early 90s, six-year-old Madhulika and her family fled Rainawari, a quaint suburb of Srinagar, in response to Kashmir’s separatist insurgency. Twenty-four years later, with no memory of her birthplace, she returns to visit her lost home with her family. Ghar Ka Pata reveals deep and personal connections that go beyond religion and politics.
