Dimensions Mumbai - SYNOPSIS

Vaaps-First Prize

Vaapsi, a moving short feature on a failed movie actor ably explores how, for some, Mumbai the city of colourful dreams, remains almost that - a black and white dream, unrealised. Smartly written, expertly shot, the film evidences a young director's rare control over the craft of filmmaking, and an urge to tell a touching story. Despite the subject--hardships of Mumbai-- which was shared among several entries at the competition, VaajJsi was the jury's unanimous choice for the top prize.

Mumbai Half Marathon -Second Prize

Refreshingly original in'its form, the energetic, musical animation Mumbai Half Marathon humorously surveys the thoughtless herd-mentality of city life where we are all pointed to a particular direction, therefore we collectively rush. While the film's take on the silly mechanics of a metropolis may not be specific to Mumbai, it's the inventiveness of the idea and the sense of joy in its approach that clearly won the jury over.

Live Mumbai -Third Prize

Live Mumbai is a delightful short film on a city where survival is for the smartest, and livelihood the only religion. Largely devoid of sentimentality, full of hope,
even with its grim theme, the short feature amusingly explores urban compulsions that turn a common-man into an efficient survivor.

Special Jury Mention:

Patri :
For the catty concept alone--a young man who falls in love with the female voice he hears most in Mumbai: of the local train-station announcer's-- the jury considered the short-film idea Patri worth a special mention.

A Handful of Sky:
A Handful of Sky is a quiet meditation on loneliness among maddening crowds that compel some to create an alternatively calm, inner world of their own. The film deserves a special prize for the mature treatment of the urban theme

LIST OF AWARDEES

Tingya: Best Film

synopsis :
Karbhari, the village farmer was all geared up to yield the tubers and payback the money he owed to the local village money lender Sahukar Tatya. One evening coming back from the graze, Chitangya, Karbhari's bull falls into the leopard trap and breaks his hind leg. Unable to stand on its feet and move, it was not possible for Chitangya to plough the fields.
Continual medication and treatment by Karbhari and his wife Anjana could not resurrect Chitangya to employ. This sent shivers in Karbhari as a little delay in reaping would have the buds on the potatoes. Karbhari did not want to penalize himself more from the sahukar. Pandu, a farmer had just committed a suicide two days ago not able to return the money to Sahukar. Why wasn't Rashida's grandmother being sold to the butcher? She too was old and not working. Why were they all taking care of her and not his Chitangya? Chitangya certainly would not depart.
Tingya is a painstakingly meticulous film about an emotional love story between a bull and a boy. It inquires through Tingya's innocence the validity of existence. It queries the order of the alive and breathing. Is it the man, animal, bird and the sea or vice versa? Who regulates and classifies the categories?
