Filmotor Acquires 'Hazara Town' Ahead of IDFA World Premiere

Filmotor has acquired worldwide sales rights to "Hazara Town," the first feature documentary from director Khadim Dai. The film examines the Hazara community in Pakistan through six years of filming, documenting themes of survival and exile.

The documentary will make its world premiere in the International Competition section at the International Documentary Film Festival Amsterdam (IDFA). This placement marks a significant festival launch for the debut feature.

With Filmotor now handling global distribution, the film is positioned for further festival play and potential theatrical or broadcast deals following its IDFA bow. The acquisition highlights continued interest in long-form documentary work from emerging voices.
