Until My Freedom Has Come by Sanjay Kak
Under an Indian military rule half a million strong, the people of Kashmir have faced more than their fair share of human rights violations and acts of violence. Until My Freedom Has Come is a collection of essays that voice the rage and helplessness that sweeps through Kashmir through the eyes of journalists, academics and artists from the region. It also offers a rare insight into the lives of those most deeply affected by the occupation. The book is made up of some of the most exciting writing that has recently emerged from within Kashmir.
Sanjay Kak is an independent documentary filmmaker whose recent work reflects his interests in ecology, alternatives and resistance politics. His films 'Jashn-e-Azadi' (How we celebrate freedom) (about the struggle for Azadi-freedom-in Kashmir), and 'Words on Water' (about the struggle against large dams in the Narmada valley in central India), have been widely screened both in India and abroad. 'Words on Water' (2003) won Best Long Film prize at the International Festival of Environmental Film & Video, Brazil. 'In the forest hangs a bridge' (1999) received the "Golden Lotus" for Best Documentary Film at the 1999 National Film Awards in India and the "Asian Gaze" Award at the Pusan Short Film Festival, Korea. He is based in New Delhi.
