MicroPakistan

This is a 20 minute documentary about Karachi made by Chai Paani Productions. It is a wonderful attempt at capturing as much of the colour and flavour of Karachi in 20 minutes as possible. I didn’t get the title, but it seems to have been taken from the poetry displayed at the back of trucks and buses seen on Karachi roads.

Also, it shows people being asked the way to different city landmarks and I get the impression that is to show how helpful the people generally are. I remember I once asked a man on the street the way to a certain place and he volunteered to sit with me in my car and take me to my destination. And then he walked all the way back. Anyway, loved watching this one.

So, here it is…
