Event Description

A short note on 'Mani Kaul'

Within the confines of the "temporal medium", Mani Kaul drifts closer to film poetry with striking vigour. A child of Bresson and Ghatak, we see Kaul's ardent dedication to his internalised philosophy of treating cinema as a temporal medium, while the vitals of cinema (image and sound) organically evolve into a sensuous interplay between each other.


This month, we dive deeper into Mani Kaul's unparalleled career in cinema.

Duvidha (1973):

Possibly Kaul's greatest and most popular film, Duvidha is a story of a ghost who falls in love with the bride of a wealthy businessman's son. Kaul's unparalleled inclusion of Indian folklore into Life in India is manifested in Duvidha.

Who are The Parallel Cinema Club?

We are a community-run film society based out of Bangalore and Hyderabad. We are a group of film enthusiasts who meet up once a week to discuss the reel world, auteurs and themes, and occasionally host guest lectures.
