On 01 November 1984, riots erupted in Delhi. The mob swarmed into Sikh neighbourhoods, killing any Sikh men, women & children they could find. The riots went on for next three days. According to official figures, around 3000 Sikhs were killed and many more were rendered homeless. Jagjeet is a short film about a man, Sikh by religion filled with guilt that he could not save his childhood friend during the 1984 Sikh massacre in India because he got scared and now haunted by this feeling, he finds difficult to live with everyday mundane life. The film takes a pithy and uncompromising look at the relentless guilt that invariably follows Jagjeet after he fails to save his best friend because of fear of his own life from rioters. |
