BBC Urdu Shehr Kahani: Shams Kahani

This fifth short documentary in the Shehr Kahani series is an oral history of the great sufi saint Shams, as told by one of his devotees. Illustrated by beautiful shots of his shrine and the atmosphere there, this is one of my favourites. Although I say that for every one of these I edit. The fact that all of these are shot and directed by 'authentic' community people makes the subject matter - and visuals - just so much more interesting, and a pleasure to edit.
