Event Description

65 mins | Bengali with English subtitles | 2019 | India Director: Yashaswini Raghunandan Cinematographer: Paromita Dhar Editor: Abhro Banerjee Sound Design: Bigyna Dahal In Daspara, a village 200 km outside of Calcutta, hundreds of toys are produced every day: rattles, whistles, windmills, all made by hand. The raw materials used are old strips of film, detritus from the archives of Bollywood. What matters isn’t so much the pictures that are used by the workers, but rather the material and the clicking sound that the strips of film make. As the villagers follow this routine with uninterrupted monotony, a few narratives leak out from the shredded analogues of film and infuse the place with phantasmagoria. The film has won numerous awards at the International Film Festival Rotterdam, Yamagata International Documentary Film Festival, Hamburg Film Festival and Jio MAMI. After the screening, the director, Yashaswini Raghunandan and the Cinematographer, Paromita Dhar will be in conversation with Sunanda Bhat.
