Wednesday in Camp Rohingya
Back to listSynopsis
Thousands of Rohingyas, recognised as refugees by the UNHCR, are trapped in an existential struggle under India's rising Hindu nationalism. They fled genocide in Myanmar, only to find themselves trapped in a similar fear of persecution in India. The film centres around a day spent at a Rohingya refugee camp in Jammu, northern India. Once a symbol of hope and sanctuary, the camp has become a stark reminder of their harrowing past and uncertain future.
