Lamakaan

Short Synopsis: Two filmmaker friends meet after fourteen years and have to spend a span of eight to ten hours together. As they celebrate the re-union, one narrates a story of a possible film to another. But soon, as the secession turns into a game of one up-man-ship; their bizarre past catches up with them. Central to this is the fatherhood of a fourteen year old girl! The duo by the end realise that they are as bankrupt as ever, in all sense of the word.
Director’s Note:This film is a sort of a reflection on my own profession, filmmaking. The genesis of this reflection is the fundamental question of the ability or inability to create something 'worthwhile'. The idea is to explore what is it to have such a ‘being’. Therefore, the film intends to go beyond its apparent subject.

About the Director: Ramchandra PN is a 1991 graduate from the ‘Film and TV Institute of India’. Over the years, he has been making documentaries, features, short films and TV programs. His first feature ‘Suddha’ (The Cleansing Rites) won him the Best Indian Film at the Osian Cinefan Festival of Asian Films, New Delhi, India in 2006 and an exhibition grant from ‘Hubart Bals Fund’, Netherlands.
