Hunza - Where creativity met the mountains!

AFS Pakistan brought the magic of cinema to the Karakoram Area Development Organization. Over two unforgettable days, we screened 3 captivating American films that left our Hunza audiences spellbound. But that's not all! Our star-studded event also featured a riveting workshop led by AFS envoy Izzy Chan titled "5 Simple Steps to Your First Documentary Clip."

With 25 talented students carefully selected, this workshop was all about honing the art of filmmaking, editing, screenwriting, directing, and the power of storytelling in documentaries.

The turnout was INSANE! From local university students to seasoned professionals, Hunza welcomed us with open arms.

Our workshop students didn't just leave with newfound knowledge; they walked away with certificates and AFS merchandise as mementos of this unforgettable experience.

And the creativity didn't stop there! We conducted a hands-on activity where students shared their thoughts on "How can you use filmmaking as a tool for social change?" and "What can Pakistani cinema learn from American cinema?" on the panels.

Thank you, Hunza, for embracing the magic of film and making this event a roaring success!
