Before the Sun Comes Up

This project was produced by Justice Project Pakistan in collaboration with Golden Hour Productions, Mishermayl and Dawn.com. It forms part of their advocacy work to reduce the scope of the death penalty which is an active form of punishment in Pakistan. Emma was part of the commissioned creative team and worked with Mohammed Hanif to make a live-streamed performance of his stories which drew from legal case studies.
