Students Documentary I Abasesha - Echoes of Kandhamal I School of Communications I XIM University

Abasesha - Echoes of Kandhamal is a documentary that intimately captures the journey of a family trapped during the communal violence in Kandhamal (Odisha, India) in 2008. The title "Abasesha," meaning residue, symbolizes the lasting impact of these events, etched into the hearts of those who lived through them. The documentary follows the survivor's family trials and escape from Kandhamal during the riot. Their story is a mirror reflecting the emotions and hardships shared by many other families affected by the same tragedy.
