Tue Oct 18, 7:30 PM
Popup Talkies & The Federation of Film Societies of India
Bokul (2015|Assamese|110min)
Presented by Popup Talkies
Synopsis: Raktim returns to his home town in the Brahmaputra valley, after a break of several years. He finds it hard to recognise the changed values of people, even of those he knew very closely at one time. As Raktim goes across the city on his scooter, he picks up the tales of three distinct characters, a young rickshaw puller, a woman with a daughter and an old fisherman, all of whom happen to be named Bokul. The film explores a pattern that emerges from the lives of the three characters as seen by an outsider who was once an insider. Changing realities, shifts in values and displacement of people point to this pattern.
Director: Reema Borah
