Hope dies last in war

Supriyo Sen, India, 2007, 80 mns.

54 Indian soldiers taken as Prisoners of War during the Indo-Pak war of 1971 are yet to return home - yet both countries deny they have any prisoners of war. While waiting for them, some of their parents died, some of their wives remarried and some children lost hope and committed suicide. But the real ordeal has been for those who did not give up. For them life has become a tight rope walk between hope and despair. This film is a saga of these families' struggle, spanning three generations, to get their men back. It records a tragic political stalemate, sufferings of love and shining moments of humanity, courage and hope.
