The groom arrives. Desire stirs. Superstition watches. LALI A film by Sarmad Sultan Khoosat Premiering at Berlinale Panorama

This is cinema that bends form, resists comfort, and asks difficult questions without offering easy answers. What remains is heat. And release.

*Caption:* Fear doesn’t arrive all at once. It seeps in. Through doubt, silence, and the things we’re taught not to name. Lali comes from that place. Where love and control blur. Where marriage carries ghosts.

From Manto to Kamli to Zindagi Tamasha, Sarmad Khoosat has built a body of work that explores desire, silence, and the cost of being seen - stories rooted in Pakistan, yet deeply universal. Lali feels like the next step in that journey. Quieter. More assured.

There are filmmakers who tell stories. And then there are those who return to the same questions, again and again, until they become cinema.

Some films ask you to look closer. At the jewelry that’s been worn before. At silk that already knows the body. At a bus that’s carried more stories than passengers. That kind of detail doesn’t happen by accident. It’s shaped by careful eyes and thoughtful hands.

Some names carry heat. Lali. Like a red sun that refuses to set. A mark of desire. A warning. A fate whispered long before it arrives. You don’t look at it for answers. You feel it stay with you.

Some stories don’t announce themselves. They linger. They haunt. They resonate. LALI Official Selection - Berlinale 2026

LALI - a Khoosat Films production in collaboration with @EnsoStudios.ae is going to Berlinale. A world premiere at the 76th Berlin International Film Festival. Our hearts are full of gratitude, of stories, of all those who held this film with care.
