Exploring Madness
(English/2006/19mins)
Dir. Parvez Imam
About the Film: The film brings together a variety of issues related to mental illness in Indian society.
Bhalo Basar Jonye, Bhalo Basar Songe (For Love, with Love)
(Bengali and Urdu with English subtitles/2019/26 mins)
Prod, Wri & Dir.Manav Kaushik
About the Film: As we hear poetic expression of an ailing father who was once very creative, we witness the worldly voyage of the main protagonist (a married daughter) seriously and sincerely taking care of him. Very well supported by her husband, though he does get annoyed time to time, as suggested, the daughter tries to re-introduce to her father the old people and places he has always been connected to in the past.
