SAARC: Looking Beyond Prophecies of Doom (1998) – Documentary

Director:

Jawed Naqvi

Synopsis:

This is a film on the 10th Annual summit of SAARC. The summit was preceded by nuclear tests by both India and Pakistan, and critics predicted conflict in the summit and even dissolution of the association. But going above these apprehensions, the summit proved to be one of the successful ones and reassured co-operation in all possible fields. The film explores the decisions taken during this summit and gives examples from the past when the countries joined hands. Trade liberalisation was one of the major discussions on which important decisions were taken. The film also discusses India’s role as the prominent member of SAARC. The prophecies of doom were proved untrue and the countries promised to stay together towards development.
