Shayhaq Baloch an indie filmmaker from Balochistan, We try to tell minimalistic stories, stories from our part of the world, stories which are not told frequently. We want to introduce them to the world. There are many unique cultures, amazing people, beautiful landscapes, turquoise beaches etc. Being a filmmaker gives us the power to live many lives, experience things which men cannot possibly get the opportunity to, living in a remote area like Balochistan, not having basic needs like drinking water, health, education, business opportunities etc. It’s very difficult to make films frequently, we make 0 budget purely independent films.
