Independent film making and art education in Pakistan

Discussion Delivered with Jasim Zahid

On the very first episode of Discussion Delivered, I'm talking to Ahsan Mahmood, a documentary film director and cinematographer. A very chill and extremely talented individual, Ahsan was the perfect guy to discuss the independent scene here in Pakistan and his journey of making documentaries and ad films. Among the things we talk about is the need to create a functional ecosystem for graduates and aspiring filmmakers, his experience of studying in Europe and the business side of film that is unfortunately not taught in local universities.
