About the Film:

Amu

Her trip back home turned into the journey of a lifetime…

Amu is the story of Kaju, a twenty-one-year-old Indian American woman who returns to India to visit her family. The film takes a dark turn as Kaju stumbles against secrets and lies from her past. A horrifying genocide that took place twenty years ago turns out to hold the key to her mysterious origins.

How were Kaju's family involved in the killings? What happened and why? Who were the culprits? Who benefited? Will Kaju have the courage to pursue the truth no matter the cost? Will it destroy her relationship with her mother? Will it affect her burgeoning romance? Will it change everything she knows about herself and about India?

Amu

When the past lives in the present…

When is it being released in the UK? I have been hunting this film down for the past 6 months ever since that Festival they had down in London and nobody here seems to have heard of it.

Anybody know where I can buy it from?

[Akritghan]

its already been released in the uk last year

the film is ok i suppose

it doesn't really have a sikhi storyline to it but it does show the corruption in india and how things still havent changed-the film ends with a news channel talking about the gujrat riots

Are you serious? Damn, I sent so much money in donations to a radio program who says money is needed to have it showed in Canada. I was thinking it was more on the lines of Sikhi.

Ahh Damn, its' all good, I guess its' for a good cause.
