You
are invited to an upcoming film screening by Paromita Vohra at Tamarind Art on
Friday, 2 November at 6:30pm. Paromita is
a filmmaker and writer, whose work focuses on gender, popular culture and
politics. Her films have been widely screened at festivals and museums
worldwide. Some of the films she has made are Q2P, which was awarded the Best Documentary Award at the IFFLA and
Stuttgart festivals, besides being exhibited at the Tate Modern. The two films
being screened at Tamarind Art have won the Best Indo-British Digital Film
Festival award.
About the
films:
Where’s
Sandra, is
a playful look at the figure “Sandra from Bandra” part covetous fantasy of the
racy Christian girl from Bombay who works as a secretary, wears a dress and
likes to dance; part condescending stereotype of a dowdy religious girl from a
minority community.
Cosmopolis:
Two Tales of a City looks at divisions of language, class, memory, and food, and queries the
myths of Bombay as a great cosmopolitan city.
Paromita
will be present during and after the screening for Q&A. Screening on
2 November 2007 at 6:30pm
To attend
