‘Yojongandhā – a Turbulent Voyage’
Selected for 31st Kolkata International Film Festival. (NETPAC Award – Asian Select)
The tale Yojongandhā’s turbulent voyage is adapted from the great Indian epic and the largest epic of the world – the Mahabharat. It expands to become the voice of many from one, and again combines to be the single voice of all neglected women, combined.
The film had a positive, energetic impact with powerful acting, expressive gestures, and clear dialogue. The use of props created a unique, systematic, and vibrant environment, though a few parts were hard to follow due to an unfamiliar background and the use of the Sanskritized Bengali language.
