An Inorganic Love Story

"One thing that we have really expanded this year, is our narrative-films section. So far, we have focused on experimental and hand-made films, which we're still doing. But this year, we have also dedicated an elaborate space to these films because we realised that a lot of them were being made using celluloid," says Karan Talwar, co-founder,  Harkat Studios.

He explains further that while it was natural for them to tilt towards experimental and artistic films that have an inherent intent of playing with the medium of film, they have, over the last three years, discovered others that focus on storytelling and the script, too.

Another highlight this year, Talwar shares, is the inclusion of a segment dedicated to Straight8, a competition founded in London in 1999 and a platform for films made using a single cartridge of super 8mm. This means there are no computers, retakes or any editing involved.

The festival here, has been designed in tandem with Harkat's analogue-focused project, India on Film, which will play at the Serendipity Arts Festival in Goa later
this month.
