The Exception and the Rule

The Exception and the Rule is a work by British artist duo Karen Mirza & Brad Butler that emerged in relation to the artists' personal experiences in Karachi, Pakistan, during 2007 and 2008.

The film is not only a response to their work with local professionals such as street vendors, Urdu translators, architects, estate agents, housing activists, lawyers, hairdressers, filmmakers, wedding photographers, newspaper printers, artists and writers, but is also an attempt to critique and understand the complex role of international and local newpapers as crucial ideological mediators on a daily basis.
