THE LIGHTNING TESTIMONIES (RAUSHAN BAYAN) By AMAR KANWAR

2009-11-08T05:54:00.001-08:00

THE FILMMAKER WILL BE PRESENT FOR AN INTERACTION FOLLOWING THE SCREENING

PLEASE COME AND CIRCULATE THIS WIDELY

WHEN: Friday, November 13th, 6.30 pm
WHERE: Alliance Francaise, Theosophy Hall, 40 New Marine Lines, Next
to Nirmala Niketan College, Churchgate,Mumbai 400 020, Tel: 22036187

ABOUT THE FILM

THE LIGHTNING TESTIMONIES
(113 minutes, documentary, several languages with English subtitles)

Why is one image different from the other? Why does an image seem to
contain many secrets? What can release them so as to suddenly connect
with many unknown lives.

The Lightning Testimonies reflects upon a history of conflict in the
Indian subcontinent through experiences of sexual violence. As the
film explores this violence, there emerge multiple submerged
narratives, sometimes in people, images and memories, and at other
times in objects from nature and everyday life that stand as silent
but surviving witnesses. In all narratives the body becomes central -
as a site for honour, hatred and humiliation and also for dignity and
protest. As the stories unfold, women from different times and regions
come forward. The film speaks to them directly, trying to understand
how such violence is resisted, remembered and recorded by individuals
and communities. Narratives hidden within a blue window or the weave
of a cloth appear, disappear and are then reborn in another vocabulary
at another time. Using a range of visual vocabularies the film moves
beyond suffering into a space of quiet contemplation, where resilience
creates a potential for transformation.

constant support through many of our endeavours and gave generously of her
time, her presence and her advice for the little time we knew her. Sadly,

In her memory, Caferati runs an annual workshop to help writers hone their
craft, to grow, and to test fresh literary waters.

Tomorrow’s Authors A writing workshop for kids (10 - 16 years - maximum 20
participants) led by Anshumani Ruddra.

Saturday, 14 November 2009 11:00 - 16:00
Sunday, 15 November 2009 11:00 - 16:00

This workshop will look into the act of writing: structuring, editing,
plotting and characterisation. Though the focus will be on short fiction the
lessons learnt will be applicable towards other forms of writing - long
fiction, poetry and narrative non-fiction.

Each individual will work on one piece during the two day period of the
workshop and the group as a whole will be responsible for critiquing each
other's work. The workshop's aim is to develop young writers who can look
objectively at their own work as well as the work of others.
Traditional and modern forms and structures of a story will be discussed and
then promptly forgotten to enable discovery of new ones. This will lead to a
set of exercises that introduces writing as an improvisational and group
activity. The group as a whole will be responsible for generating ideas,
working and reworking them and finally committing them to paper - always
evolving the story as they go along.

PENtathlon
Five Exercises for Fiction Writers (beginners, 17 years +, maximum 20
participants) by Annie Zaidi and Manisha LakheAn intense workshop targeted
at kick-starting the writing process for those who want to try their hand at
fiction, or those who have tried already but want to find a way around that
object of ill repute: writer’s block.

Saturday, 21 November 2009 at 11:00
Sunday, 22 November 2009 at 16:00

There will be a set of five exercises, in an ideate-and-discuss format,
which will take you through the whole process of putting together a short
story or even a novella, if you work really, really hard. One the first say,
the workshop leaders will tell you how to build characters, find appropriate
settings, how to make the narrative move from one point to another.
Participants will be well into their story by the end of the first day and
will be expected to come up with more ideas or a fleshier story when they
return the next morning.
Workshop leaders will help you find resolutions, in case you have not found
them already, and share some basic techniques for cracking the walls you
come up against.

About Annie Zaidi and Manisha Lakhe
Annie Zaidi writes poetry, fiction, non-fiction, drama, blog posts, reports,
reviews and (in a dark, distant past) recipes she never actually tried.
If gun laws weren't so strict, Manisha Lakhe would be out there shooting at
every dangling participle and lynching incorrect users of grammar. Alas, she
is reduced to venting poetry on unsuspecting audience and writing reviews of
movies, books and other kinds of fiction.

Scripted
A workshop for beginners on writing for stage and screen (beginners, 17
years +, maximum 20 participants) by Anuvab Pal

Saturday, 28 November 2009 11:00 - 16:00
Sunday, 29 November 2009 11:00 - 16:00

They say writing for the stage or writing drama is the oldest profession in
the world, beating even prostitution.
Have you ever wanted to write a play? Have you ever written a play and
abandoned it? If you've ever wondered what it would be like to make a live
audience react to things you've got to say, you probably want to join
politics or write for the stage. This workshop is for the latter.
Writing for the stage in Bandra is the same as writing for the stage
anywhere else, so we'll go through the basics of plot, structure,
characters, conflict, intentions and ideas.
And then together, we'll try to tell some stories that for reasons you'll
discover and tell us about, is best told on a stage.

Is Coming, Chaos Theory and 1-888-Dial-India. His movies include Loins of
Punjab Presents (co-written) and The President Is Coming.

In an age when the film experience has been reduced to the tiny screens of our laptops and iPods, oftentimes experienced alone, Mocha Mojo in association with the Bombay Elektrik Projekt offers you a chance to be part of an enchanting, community exercise: Short Cuts allows you to bask in the glow of the short film.

Tequila-shot like movies that are quickly clever but profoundly rich, packed with hard-hitting humor and long-lasting poignancy.

Short Cuts’ mission is to discover and nurture brilliance and innovation in the worlds of film, animation and music. We unite audiences via the short films submitted each fortnight, and an special set of global films especially curated for each night.

Film world personalities, ad gurus, hobo-writer types, struggling actors, cinematographers, anyone with an interest in the visual medium (yes, that includes the rest of the city) are all invited to be part of the special night: network, chat, diss or kiss-ass as the night of cinema unfolds.

Here are films that will be screened on the 10th of November:

We are having a very special screening of "On connaît la chanson" brought to you by Alliance Française de Bombay followed by three films under the theme "All Human Beings are Born Free and Equal" .
