By presenting the movie “Kivein Bhullaan”, by presenting the movie “Kivein Bhullaan”, we, your children, have made a humble attempt to connect ourselves with the silent and painful struggle of Sikh nation towards justice.

The movie “Kivein Bhullaan” express the pain inflicted on the Sikh nation by the 1984 holocaust. Although the characters shown in this video are not real, they truly represent what the Sikh nation experienced during the genocide. This story is about a Sikh woman named Gian Kaur who experienced both the June attack on the Golden Temple and the anti-Sikh pogroms of November 1984. She lost all of her family except her daughter in law Gurleen when Indira Gandhi ordered the Indian army to attack Akal Takhat and Darbar Sahib. Six months later, in November of 1984, she also lost Gurleen. We are going to present the condition of Gian Kaur’s life after the events of June and November 1984. How she has been affected by the murder of her father, son and grandson in the Harmandar Sahib complex and by the gang-rape and scorching of her daughter-in-law during the November anti-Sikh pogroms, both of which she witnessed with her very eyes.

Although we cannot see any hope, and this night of atrocities and suffering does not seem to end,  the our rich heritage built by Guru Sahibs and Sikh ancestors give us the message of Charhdikala and Sarbat Da Bhala (High Spirit and Goodwill of All).

In 2004, France passed a law banning all conspicuous religious symbols worn by students in public schools. Irremovable articles of faith, such as the Sikh turban, were included in the ban. Sikh students had to give up their faith, or give up their education. Many were forced to drop out, in the name of ’secularism.’ Even though Sikh soliders were received as hereos in Marseilles in World War I, the Sikh turban is banned in France.

The following video editorial, in the form of a music video, artistically challenges the current regulations invoked in the French public school system.

Today, language experts from all over the world are disturbed, as out of 6800 languages that existed in the world, only 600 languages would survive in future. This means, on an average, one language dies every 15 days. Whenever a language dies, the culture and religion attached to it also die. Experts are foreseeing that Punjabi language will get eliminated in the coming 50 years. The irony is that ,the grave of Punjabi language is being dug by her own beloved children.

Feeling the suffering of their mother tongue, we the students of Mata Jai Kaur Public School, have made this small film – ‘Teri Mardi Jawe Maa’. With the help of this small effort, we want to wake up all Punjabi fraternity from their slumber. Let us all contribute towards our beloved language and put some effort, so that we can feel proud about our culture and language. Let us teach the future generation to respect and love ‘Punjabi’ and ‘Punjabiyat’.

In this film, at least 50 students of classes V to XII have contributed towards acting as well as other technical aspects of the film.
