Drama, Family
The Sanyals are a large extended family composed of the nonagenarian grandfather (Haradhan Banerjee), his son (Ranjit Mallick), daughter-in-law (Laboni Sarkar) and their children of whom two, a daughter (Koel Mallick) and a son (Rishi Kaushik), live together in a mansion in Bhawanipur. There seems to be more servants in their house than family members, extending the virtues and parameters of the ideal ‘joint’ family. The film starts with everyone being excited about the return of the elder son (Babul Supriyo) from the U.S., where he had gone for work. However, all hell breaks loose when he returns with a wife (Rituparna Sengupta) and her child from a former marriage in tow.

Shot in eleven days in the countryside of Southern Belgium, Gerda 85 is the first feature-length movie made by Patricia Gélise and Nicolas Deschuyteneer. Inspired by their own lives, they draw a portrait of a young girl in the mid-1980s. This low-budget and self-produced movie travels though Gerda's interior life in the particular context of those somewhat troubled times. The film is part of that branch of independent film which is working to discover a free form made from ruptures and experiments Saturated with the music of its time - New Wave from the beginning of the 80s - the movie is also a portrait of fractured youth, trying to make sense of a life crossed by a history of disillusionment.Dolores Claiborne
