"Garam Hawa" The story centers around a middle-aged Muslim shoe manufacturer who must either leave his homeland of Agra, where he has lived for generations, or remain there to face the carnage threatening to ravage the new republic. Sathyu's first film received critical acclaim for its masterly handling of the controversial theme of the partition of India during independence from British rule and the Muslim dilemma. Although the film's producers anticipated a hostile reception, it went on to win a national award for serving the cause of national integration. "The film remains a landmark for its sensitive portrayal of an essentially human problem emanating from forces of history and politics beyond the individual's control" (Shampa Banerjee, Anil Srivastava, One Hundred Indian Films). Hindi with English subtitles. 150 minutes.
