IMARKIT presents SIKH HISTORY: THE FORGOTTEN CHAPTERS

After a sold-out debut, Sikh History: The Forgotten Chapters returns to Kelowna for a second transformative evening — one that blends historical storytelling, emotional depth, and a strong social message into a single unforgettable experience.

This special event features a documentary film directed by Guri Bassi, Founder of IMARKIT. The documentary introduces audiences to the fundamentals of Sikhism, providing an accessible and engaging overview of the faith’s origin, beliefs, and core values. Through powerful narration and vivid visuals, the film explores the sacrifices of Guru Tegh Bahadur, the formation of the Khalsa by Guru Gobind Singh Ji, the heroic resistance of Banda Singh Bahadur, and the rise of Maharaja Ranjit Singh — celebrating the spiritual strength and warrior spirit that define the Sikh identity.

In addition to the film, the evening includes two original theatrical performances:

Sons of The Lion – A youth-led play featuring children and teens aged 6–18,
Cry of The Souls – A gripping and emotional performance by adults.
Both plays weave together stories from Sikh history with the contemporary challenges of mental health, highlighting how the courage, resilience, and teachings of Sikh warriors can guide and empower individuals today.

The event will also feature brief presentations by special guest speakers, who will share messages of reflection, strength, and community healing.

Whether you're continuing the journey from our first event or attending for the first time, this evening promises to educate, inspire, and connect generations — offering a bridge between the forgotten chapters of Sikh history and the important conversations of today.
