Trek alongside spiritual pilgrims on a treacherous journey across Pakistan

Save

Each year, caravans of mostly Sufi pilgrims embark on a gruelling journey from a shrine in the city of Sehwan to a shrine near the town of Dureji in Pakistan, making stops at holy places along the way. The journey requires an intense physical and spiritual commitment, with participants required to trek 200 km across rugged mountains and scorching deserts. Titled Lahooti for the name these travellers are given, this short film gives a brief yet cinematically stunning look at the landscapes, traditions and spiritual fervour that characterise this remarkable journey, which is ‘fuelled by love and peace’.

Directors: Sebastian Feehan, Matthieu Paley

Produced by: Next Door Films
