The recently concluded Berlin Film festival had a section for films meant for children. It gave the "Special mention" award to India's entry GATTU.
Thanks to the new emerging Indian film making from low-key directors we do occasionally get to see brilliance on screen. Sadly, not a lot of it is well publicized and widely distributed because a) the audience is selected and b) it means high cost and low revenue. What a shame!
Let up hope that it does have a wide release in the near future and I hope to catch it then, or maybe in some film festival nearby.
"The sky is full of kites and none flies as high or fast as Kali. In order to beat the black kite, Gattu has to reach for the sky."
