3rd i 2026: Ghost School

A magical, sweet, and visually evocative narrative, British-Pakistani director Seemab Gul captures a child’s pursuit of answers in a community weighed down by fear of ghosts and misinformation. Journeying through an expansive, sun-drenched landscape, ten-year-old Rabia encounters people from all classes and backgrounds in her quest to uncover the reasons for the ghostly tales and why the only school in her village is closed.
