Greetings! After our initial call for submissions to our SALAAM
Monthly
Reading Series, we are thrilled to announce our selection for the month
of November 2000:
BINA SHARIF's
My Ancestor's House
directed by Sourabh Chatterjee
In My Ancestor's House, we follow the return of Bindia, a Pakistani
woman who has chosen to marry and live in the West, to her native land
and the world of her sisters and dying mother. It is on this journey
that she is confronted with jealousy and family strife that question her
very existence. Sharif's MY ANCESTOR'S HOUSE is a beautiful
story that reminds us that no matter how far one travels, they must answer
the call of their motherland.
