Friday 10/25, 8:45 PM (Session 27)

Director: Cary McClelland
Co-Director: Imran Babur
Producers: Cary McClelland, Billy Smith, M. Khalid Ali, Rob Profusek, Ryan Silbert

Description:

Six bold people navigate the dangerous waters of Pakistan's current crisis to discover a new tomorrow: a cricket star starts a progressive political party, a female journalist goes behind Taliban lines, an ex-mujahid seeks redemption, a trucker crosses dangerous territory to feed his family, a supermodel pushes feminism through fashion and a subversive Sufi rocker uses music to heal. Filmed by a team of Americans and Pakistanis over two years, Without Shepherds cuts through alarmist media depictions of the country to celebrate the bravery of its people.
