Tasvir's Third Time is the Charm

The third-annual Tasvir: Festival of South Asian Films will be a diverse and glittering mix of things familiar and things new, of things both tragic and blissful and, most importantly, of things truly powerful. Tasvir, founded in November 2002 by then-undergraduate Bilal Qureshi, screens films of the Indian subcontinent this year, touching on themes of partition, cultural conflict and human compassion.
