This art and culture house occupies what was originally a personal residence, an intimate space that can accommodate about 15 people; this might even usher in conversation without people feeling too lost in the crowd. This extends to the way the gallery curates their events, too. “We work with upcoming artistes and platforms that are homegrown or people who are just starting out and have unique things to offer,” Bagga shares. Similarly, the menu for the culinary aspect of the festival is set by a home chef. Last edition, The Grub Club catered a gruyère cheese fondue, apple strudel, croutons and dips. For this edition, the festival collaborates with Indrani Sen for Belgian waffles, flamiche (a savoury tart that resembles a quiche) and other bite-sized offerings. The menu selection presented by the home chef, Bagga tells us, hopes to go beyond the well-known dishes a place has to offer.

Usually kept as a surprise for participants, Cyrus F Dastur, founder of Shamiana Shorts, tells us that the film showcased will be Death of a Shadow, an Academy Award-nominated film by Tom Van Avemaet. Explaining his selection, Dastur shares, “Apart from trivia, [themes], and people’s thoughts of the film, it will also give us a chance to explore the contribution of Belgian cinema, which might not usually pop up in a conversation around world or European cinema.”
