Music In A Village Named 1PB

Overview

In a landscape of shifting sands, a community enclosed into grids with no name, rehearses its music in villages like 1 PB, a dot at the Indian side of the India-Pakistan border. Mirs are the custodians and practitioners of a timeless poetry not bound to 'quam' or 'desh'. But the land has now degraded, boundaries have hardened and the music has become a whisper. This film gleans songs and poems to stitch a portrait of musicians struggling to keep their inheritance of Sufi and Bhakti music alive.
