Third-i South Asian Film Fest in Effect This Weekend

Neela Banerjee - November 13, 2007

Hyphen is an official media sponsor, so I’ll be writing some updates this weekend but I highly recommend people check out the Shorts [1] program on Friday, that features amazing local filmmakers like Kirthi Nath [2] and Single Beige Female [3].

I'm also excited for Friday night’s fascinating experiemental documentary [4] about call center workers in India. Then, on Saturday, there's tons of buzz about Loins of Punjab Presents [5] -- a take on a Desi American Idol in New Jersey and Dosar [6] – because once you see real Bengali art films you’ll never go back to that Bollywood crap. Both of these are at The Castro, too! And then on Sunday there's the gorgeous looking Sankara [7], about Buddhism, art and lust.

See you at the movies!!!
