About this Event

Djinn
By Aditi Pradhan
Directed by Reena Dutt

In 2024, Nasrin and her son, Ayan, live in Little Bangladesh in an apartment that Nasrin is sure is filled with djinns. In 1947, Lata and her son, Rahul, navigate being two of the first South Asians in the United States – while living in the same apartment. When revolution breaks out in each of their respective homelands in each of their respective time periods, Lata's and Nasrin's worlds will intersect in ways that they never imagined.
