Chirag-e-rah

Commissioned by Pakistan’s Inter-Services Public Relations, this documentary anchors a broader national program aimed at fortifying the western frontier and safeguarding the country from cross-border threats. Filmed over 1,200 km of unforgiving landscape—from the deserts of coastal Balochistan to the high passes along the Afghan crest, it chronicles the Army’s engineering feat of erecting a continuous border fence, establishing remote outposts, and deploying cutting-edge surveillance. By pairing sweeping aerial vistas with ground-level portraits of the soldiers and local communities who live this mission daily, the film not only documents Pakistan’s security efforts but also offers the world an inside look at the resolve and resilience driving them.
