- This documentary film investigates the disappearance of a prisoner of war during the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict in 1992.
- This is a travel documentary of a group of 5 bikers who decide to ride their Royal Enfield Bullet motorcycles from Delhi to Ladakh, the Indian home of Tibetan Buddhism. This 3,000 km journey across the Himalayas is one of the toughest motorcycle trips in the world. The plan was: five riders, four bikes, no back up vehicle and no film crew. There was no pre-planned screenplay, and no locations or events to cover. The film was shot by one of the bikers, filmmaker Karan Singh, who took his camera along for the ride. He is the one-man unit responsible for the film. The documentary captures the interaction and experience of the bikers as they ride through the Himalayas. Through Kashmir and Ladakh, they encounter floods, landslides, snow, and altitude sickness at heights of 18,300 feet. It's a film on friendship, camaraderie, and the 'never say die' attitude of the five as they face off with nature, connect with local communities, explore old battlefields, and encounter nomads amidst some of the most spectacular and demanding landscapes possible.
- This documentary film explores the conflict between urban development and heritage conservation. With its 5,000-year history, India is dotted with historical landmarks and monuments. Yet these are increasingly threatened by economic progress, especially in urban centers. What are the stakes, who are the people involved, and how can this struggle between the old and the new be resolved? Past Tense looks at India's capital Delhi, inhabited for over 1,000 years and home to 15 million people. The cash-strapped Archaeological Survey of India is forced to focus on the city's three World Heritage sites, while smaller monuments get swamped by the pressures of a growing urban population. The film also examines Hampi, the ruined capital of the powerful Vijaynagar Kingdom, which was on UNESCO's list of World Heritage in Danger, and remains threatened by unplanned development and vandalism.
