Women reunion - Lahore 1948

Western Pakistan, 1948. At the time of partition, families lost track of each other. It took months, sometimes years, for the lost members of families to be located again. This is a reunion at the refugee camp at Lahore. In a sing-song chant and weeping, The women tell each other sad stories of their troubles and losses since they last saw each other.
