Filmmaker in Focus : Abeer Khan
Abeer Khan is a self-taught Filmmaker and Photographer based in Mumbai. Over the years she has gained proficiency in her profession through reading, researching and developing her skills for Direction, Editing, Cinematography, and Photography. Most of her films are a result of her functioning as a ‘one woman crew’. Her work is involved with the inner world of her characters. As she says, “Through Filmmaking and Photography, I try to bring out the inner churning of the character’s mind. In my work, space is a crucial element. I find it immensely interesting to observe the function of the characters in their spaces and create a world of their own.”
Her films Makaan , Far from the Madding Crowd, Free Housing Free T.B, and Child Lock have
been showcased at Chennai International Film festival, VAICA, Hers is us, Prithvi Vikalp, Harkat Arts, and Madurai Film festival. Abeer likes to spend her leisure time sculpting, and cypher solving.
