'Ramchand Pakistani' is derived from a true story concerning the accidental
crossing of the Pakistan-Indian border during a period
(June 2002) of extreme, war-like tension between the two countries by two
members of a Pakistani Hindu family belonging to the 'untouchable' (Dalit)
caste, and the extraordinary consequences of this unintended action upon the
lives of a woman, a man, and their son.
The singular theme of the film is how a child from Pakistan aged eight years
learns to cope with the trauma of forced separation from his mother while
being held prisoner, along with his father in the jail of a country i.e. India,
which is hostile to his own, while on the other side of the border, the wifemother,
devastated by their sudden disappearance builds a new chapter of
her life, by her solitary struggle for sheer survival.
Belonging to one of the lowest castes in Hinduism (one of the
"untouchables"), the family is also part of a small minority of Hindus in a
country, which is the Islamic Republic of Pakistan, in which 97% of the
people are Muslims. The boy and his father are held captive in India where,
in contrast to Pakistan, the overwhelming majority of about 80% comprises
of Hindus.
The film portrays the lives of a family that is at the bottom of a
discriminatory religious ladder and an insensitive social system, which is
nevertheless tolerant, inclusive and pluralist. The irony is compounded by the
fact that such a family becomes hostage to the acrimonious political
relationship between two neighbor-states poised on the brink of war.
