The main objective of my documentary is to visually represent and capture Hyderabad's cultural diversity. The documentary weaves a story that conveys the city's dynamic past along with its present, by covering various famous traditions and landmarks. It covers significant aspects, from historical monuments to modern technology hubs, with the goal of capturing the fusion of modernity with tradition in Hyderabad. Producing the documentary is complex, filled with both triumphs and setbacks, leading to creating a visual narrative that perfectly captures the city's essence.

While the temperatures in Hyderabad are rising in April, we will plunge into some retrospective coolness of the Master director, Francis Ford Coppola, celebrating his extraordinary films.
Francis Ford Coppola (born April 7, 1939) is an American film director, producer and screenwriter. He is considered one of the leading figures of the New Hollywood film movement of the 1960s and 1970s and is widely considered one of the greatest directors of all time. He is the recipient of five Academy Awards, six Golden Globe Awards, two Palmes d'Or and a British Academy Film Award (BAFTA).
Film Title: THE RAINMAKER| 1997 | 135 Mins | US | English Language with English Subtitles
About the film: The Rainmaker is a 1997 American legal drama film written and directed by Francis Ford Coppola based on John Grisham's 1995 novel of the same title. It stars Matt Damon, Claire Danes, Jon Voight, Mary Kay Place, Mickey Rourke, Danny DeVito, Danny Glover, Roy Scheider, Virginia Madsen, and Teresa Wright in her final film role.

He is also the only hope of an elderly couple after their corrupt insurance company refuses to pay out a claim that could save their child's life.

Dear Future Children
Thu Apr 25, 7:00 PM
Goethe - Zentrum Hyderabad & Lamakaan
Dear Future Children tells of the challenges faced by activists of different international movements. The film aims to uncover their motivations and, among other things, also looks at how the organizational forms of the protests evolve.
Dear Future Children focuses on the political work of three activists whose struggles are often associated with enormous personal risk. In Chile, Rayen protests for social justice; in Hong Kong, Pepper is committed to the survival of democracy; and in Uganda, Hilda is dedicated to working against the devastating consequences of climate change. The three narrative threads are linked by the shared irrepressible will of the young activists and their comrades-in-arms not to be defeated by the existing system and to fight for a better world. The events in the respective locations and the people involved are captured up close and intimately by the camera and director Franz Böhm – both on location during protests and public events and in very personal conversations.

Politics of Sikhism's Evolution
Fri Apr 26, 7:30 PM
Lamakaan
Title: Politics of Sikhism's Evolution and Consequences thereof.
About the talk:
From a rudimentary collective after the tenth Guru... Sikhism as an organized religion, evolved through many political challenges from extant religions. While surviving various onslaughts for a couple of centuries, it finally took control of its institutions that still bear scars of the violence done to the original thought of the 10 gurus initiated by Guru Nanak's teachings. This has impacted the current socio-political scene as well as the state of Sikh politics in Punjab.
About Dr. Jasveen Jairath:
Dr. Jasveen Jairath is from an academic and research background with a focus on the politics of water management. She has lately been active as a social and political activist on various human rights issues in Hyderabad. She hails from Punjab, has a first degree in engineering, and obtained her doctorate in economics from JNU Delhi.

In the hottest month of summer, May, Lamakaan brings you a cool breeze of retro films by Rainer Werner Fassbinder, considered to be a catalyst of the New German Cinema Movement.
Rainer Werner Fassbinder (German: [ˈʁaɪnɐ ˈvɛʁnɐ ˈfasbɪndɐ] ⓘ; 31 May 1945 – 10 June 1982), sometimes credited as R. W. Fassbinder,[1] was a German filmmaker, actor, and dramatist. He is widely regarded as one of the major figures and catalysts of the New German Cinema movement. Versatile and prolific, his over 40 films span a variety of genres, most frequently blending elements of Hollywood melodrama with social criticism and avant-garde techniques.[2] His films, according to him, explored "the exploitability of feelings".[3][4] His work was deeply rooted in post-war German culture: the aftermath of Nazism, the German economic miracle, and the terror of the Red Army Faction. He worked with a company of actors and technicians who frequently appeared in his projects.
Film Title: ALI: FEARS EATS THE SOUL | 1974 | 93 Mins | Germany| German Language with English Subtitles
About the film: Ali: Fear Eats the Soul (German: Angst essen Seele auf) is a 1974 West German drama film written and directed by Rainer Werner Fassbinder, starring Brigitte Mira and El Hedi ben Salem. The film won the International Federation of Film Critics award for best in-competition movie and the Prize of the Ecumenical Jury at the 1974 Cannes Film Festival.[1] It is considered to be one of Fassbinder's most powerful works and is hailed by many as a masterpiece.
The film revolves around the romance that develops between Emmi, an elderly German woman, and Ali, a Moroccan migrant worker in postwar West Germany.

Lamakaan
In the hottest month of summer, May, Lamakaan brings you a cool breeze of retro films by Rainer Werner Fassbinder, considered to be a catalyst of the New German Cinema Movement.
Rainer Werner Fassbinder (German: [ˈʁaɪnɐ ˈvɛʁnɐ ˈfasbɪndɐ] ⓘ; 31 May 1945 – 10 June 1982), sometimes credited as R. W. Fassbinder,[1] was a German filmmaker, actor, and dramatist. He is widely regarded as one of the major figures and catalysts of the New German Cinema movement. Versatile and prolific, his over 40 films span a variety of genres, most frequently blending elements of Hollywood melodrama with social criticism and avant-garde techniques. His films, according to him, explored "the exploitability of feelings". His work was deeply rooted in post-war German culture: the aftermath of Nazism, the German economic miracle, and the terror of the Red Army Faction. He worked with a company of actors and technicians who frequently appeared in his projects.
Film Title: DESPAIR | 1978| 120 Mins | Germany| German Language with English Subtitles
About the film: Despair – A Journey into the Light (Despair – Eine Reise ins Licht) tells the story of Hermann Hermann, an unbalanced Russian émigré and chocolate magnate, whose business and marriage have both grown bitter. The factory is close to bankruptcy, and his vulgar wife is chronically unfaithful. He hatches an elaborate plot to take a new identity in the belief it will free him of all his worries. The story of Hermann's descent into madness is juxtaposed with the rise of National Socialism in Germany in the 1930s.
Screening followed by Discussion. All are Welcome. Entry is Free & Open to all!

Longen Folk To Go On Pilgrimage
Fri May 17, 7:30 PM
Kunal Vohra
This self-funded documentary is about what used to be a little known event until the 1980s but which has now become the single largest annual pilgrimage in India: the Kanwar Yatra. The film looks at not just the religious and cultural aspects of the Yatra but also its socio-economic impact, the environmental issues attached to it (for instance, the state of the Ganga and the potential for man-animal conflict, etc), the sheer maleness of the event, and how the occasion is being used by Hindu right-wing groups to push their majoritarian agenda and the showcase it has become for Hindu nationalism.
The nearly 90-minute film was shot over a period of six years and was an official selection at the 8th Kolkata People's Film Festival in 2022. The film has had a screening at Prithvi Theatre, Bombay, and over 35 universities across the world, including Princeton, Yale, Columbia and Stanford, have acquired it to screen/stream it for their students, faculty and staff.
