What happens
Project Peshawar is a 2017 Pakistani multilingual suspense thriller film. It incorporated Pashto, Urdu, Dutch, and English language. It was Khyber Pakhtunkhwa's first internationally released film. Project Peshawar was particularly popular in global media because Peshawar, the capital of the province, was the hub of militant activity for years. Project Peshawar is a blend of eastern and western cultures, highlighting the negative side of modern-day social media. The film also highlights the importance and legacy of the city of Peshawar at national and international levels. Project Peshawar revived Pashto cinema due to its production quality and talented cast members. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
