Kaafila
(2007)
 |
Synopsis:
Kaafila is the story of a group of people who are
traveling illegally to UK. As it always happens they
fall prey to an unscrupulous agent who creates circumstances
that send them into hiding, somewhere in Eastern Europe
for nearly six months. Left to fend for themselves
, they discover each other and themselves.
After
much hardships their journey resumes but this time
at every step, death stares them in their face. Be
it through the jagged jungles near Russia or the ship
that hundreds like them are huddled into, the close
knit group finds itself shrinking after each tragedy.
Be it in the sinister snow or the sinking ship. Now
only 12 men out of this group have survived.
|
They
are from different communities and different countries. But
the trauma of tragedies has created a strong bond between
them. In their effort to forge ahead closer to their dream,
the innocent dozen finds itself trapped sometimes by the Russian
mafia involved in the plutonium smuggling racket and sometimes
by the militancy on the Afghan borders. Here they meet an
Afghani girl who introduces them to the mysterious man of
the mountains Sameer, enacted by the hero SUNNY DEOL. Sameer
saves them from all attacks from friends and foes. The Kaafila
now believes that only he can be their deliverer. But as the
story unfolds, taking the contingent which started off from
India, through Tajakistan, Russia and soon back to Afghanistan
and Pakistan, doubts about the daring Sameer are raised. Can
they trust him any further ?

- Official
Movie Website: An immigrant indian businessman dollar
patel, finds a white son in law whos a crook, but his daughter
bbegins to like him.
- Radio
Sargam: Sunny Deol starrer Kaafila is a movie which
will question your conscience and counter your foolishness.
The film proves that there are idiots still present in this
world, who make non sensical films like Kaafila, a fake
attempt at bringing the global issue of human trafficking
into the limelight.
