Shahana Rajani | Canada | 2025 | 17 mins. | Sindhi
Four Acts of Recovery follows a fisher family from the Indus Delta of Pakistan as they turn to practices of drawing and painting to navigate unprecedented infrastructural violence and climate collapse. As the delta is quickly submerged by the sea, this family searches for old and new ways of maintaining sacred relations with their shrines and disappearing homelands.
