Little Terrorist

While most Indians are disappointed at the failure of Shwaas to make it to the list of nominees in the “Best Foreign Film” category, I wonder how many know that an Indian entry is still in contention for the Oscar statuette!

Little Terrorist, a short film by Ashwin Kumar has been nominated in the “Best Short Film (Live Action)” category. It’s about how a Hindu teacher helps a little Pakistani boy, Jamal, who strays into Indian territory chasing a cricket ball.

With a runtime of 15 minutes, no wonder people missed this little terrorist who sneaked under the radar tracking the Shwaas hype.

Best of luck to Ashwin Kumar and his team!!
