After winning two awards at the Durban International Film festival, Manoj Bajpayee starrer Joram has now been selected in ‘A Window in Asian Cinema’ category at the Busan International Film Festival. The film also features Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub

Previously, Joram won the 'Best Actor Award' and 'Best Cinematography Award' at the Durban International Film Festival. It also premiered at Rotterdam earlier this year and more recently participated in the Sydney Film Festival and the Edinburgh International Film Festival.

Describing the film as an “emotionally-charged survival thriller”, Devashish had earlier said, “It’s a story of a tribal man being chased by powerful forces who want him dead. He has to stay on the run to keep his infant daughter alive.”
