Award-winning Naeem Mahmood’s latest film ‘Gods of Their Own Religion’ smashes all the boundaries and unleashes raw cinematic brilliance amidst the chaos of 2020 lockdown constraints.
Combining gritty cinematography with hypnotic storytelling, Mahmood’s genre-defying arthouse thriller explores the paradox between a desire for survival and the necessity of defending personal freedoms, which may lead to almost certain death.
‘Gods of Their Own Religion’ transports viewers to a dystopian authoritarian regime, where moral values and human emotion are extinguished. Individuals must conform the prescribed codes and behaviours of oppressive governmental forces.
