Coming Out

'When did you come out?' Whether I'm doing a media interview, at a dinner party, or scrolling through social media comments, this question is almost always present. My forever answer, 'I'm always coming out.", is continuously met with the same confused look. In this LGBTQ+ short I spoof the many times I've come out in my life, from checking in to a hotel to find that they have "upgraded" my girlfriend and I to separate rooms to the 80 year old man at my office who always said "quit texting your boyfriend!" when I looked at my phone. I examine how the assumption of heterosexuality in our society requires LGBTQ+ folks to come out, daily, presented in a comedic and satirical light. There is power in laughter

Drawn from Dreams

An eighteenth-century notebook from the Western Himalayan Hills has recorded in it dreams as omens. Scenes from the waking memory of the artist seem to have enlivened dreams from a bygone era. Coming from the family ateliers of the master painter Nainsukh of Guler, this journal of dreams is interesting not only for its ethnographical documentation but also for the excellent artistic qualities of the illustrations, underlined delightfully with sound and rhythm by the director Amit Dutta.

La bohème - NCPA

In the cold of winter, an exuberant poet lives in poverty with his three bohemian flatmates. His heart is warmed when he falls in love with his fragile neighbour, but then her illness takes a turn for the worse. The National Centre for the Performing Arts in Mumbai presents this innovative semi-staged production of Puccini’s beloved opera. Carlo Rizzi conducts the lush score, which is interspersed with texts from Henri Murger’s original novel to tell the tale of the lives and loves of the young bohemian artists in the Latin quarter of Paris.

Abbas by Abbas

Abbas was a great reporter. He went to the scene of the great events that changed the world from the 70s to today. He worked for the largest news agencies. Suffice to say that it is at the heart of the history of current photography. But not only that. Beyond having been a witness of his time, it can be said that he was the confidant. This is reflected in his way of engaging in conflict, of travelling a country, without a priori, to meet men caught up in the ups and downs of history, but also by his curiosity for the way men live different religions. What does photography tell men? What do men tell of themselves through their multiple practices? Here is the portrait of an observer of the world, the last words of a great photographer of our time, a few days before disappearing.
