This is probably the best thing to happen in months. My graduation project, a documentary that I made as a part of my masters program gets screened at Beskop Tshechu, a short and documentary film festival in Bhutan, tomorrow. Only if I could be there to see people's reactions and hear from them about what they thought of the film. Also going to a new country would be have been great. But in life, especially mine, things happen otherwise.Sigh.But I'm thankful to the committee for selecting my film in the non-competition category.
Its far from being a good film, but its the process that has taught me a lot. The film started off as an ode to the works of my favourite author Ruskin Bond, but changed courses mid-way and ended up being about this old woman called Krishna Devi, one of the residents of Char Dukan, Landour- a place that I've fallen in love with. So I still have that Ruskin Bond film to make.
Hope this film gets to travel to different places.
