Event Description : 'To-Let' Documentary film screening.
Six cats and a city in flux. TO LET is about spaces. Empty, Crowded, Real, Imagined, Urban, Liminal, Nostalgic. A film about moving, renting and living. About cities as they live elsewhere and inside the artist's head. A single man, a couple, a music band and the filmmaker try to understand what home means in the continuous cycle of migration and flux. All of them are at various stages of settling, moving, shifting as a part of their displaced city identities. What is home for those who only know their immediate urban reality? What is home when there is nowhere else to go? What is the identity of a 'tenant' to those who engage in a life of art living in a city in India? TO LET is about spaces, people, cats, and the stories woven around them. Stories that become a film, a song, a memory; as physical spaces replace themselves and addresses change houses. The film has been commissioned by the Public Service Broadcasting Trust (PSBT) India.
TO-LET has been awarded 'Best Long Documentary' at the 6th IDSFFK (International Documentary and Short Film Festival of Kerala) 2013, Kerala USA Premiere: New York Indian Film Festival, NY, 2013.
Spandan Banerjee drew cartoons, T-shirts, and ads, before doing what he always wanted to do, realize stories into film. After several awards and years in advertising, he started making his own films under his alternative independent outfit Overdose Films. His last film You Don't Belong won various awards including the ‘Special Jury Mention’ at the National Film Awards. He is currently developing two feature films titled Golden Triangle and Bahurupi in Hindi and Bengali. He lives in Delhi and is now putting together a platform, Overdose Local to create an independent film scene in a city with no defined film space. His latest film is a fiction feature on Delhi, City of Dark.
