Best Friends, Uttar Pradesh, India, 2019


The color portraits by Steve McCurry inspired me to take color film with me to India. These young girls were photographed by me in 2013 when I visited a refugee community in their area. The families were displaced due to the riots of Muzaffarnagar that same year. Now the world is facing a refugee crisis on a massive scale, and a return to chaos for countless girls in Afghanistan. I can only hope otherwise.
