With both Indian and international documentary screenings on the agenda, Vikalp's Facebook and Instagram page will be posting links to films provided by the filmmakers, which will be available for 48 hours or longer. After viewers give it a watch, they can post questions, following which the filmmakers can choose to respond to them. The initiative kicks off with the seminal documentary Manufacturing Consent that explores the political life and ideas of the intellectual Noam Chomsky, by Mark Achbar and Peter Wintonick. And the most interesting questions will be answered not only by Achbar but by Chomsky, too. Patwardhan adds, "We are open to submissions from filmmakers but the films should be relevant to the world right now."
