SUMMARY:3rd i co-presents "Farah Goes Bang" at Sundance Kabuki Cinemas
DESCRIPTION:3rd i co-presents at CAAMFest 2014. \nFarah Goes Bang \nTwenty-something Farah Mahtab is eager to shake the unwanted “virgin” moniker\, but her sex life is a litany of awkward\, fumbled encounters. When best friends Roopa and KJ\, propose a cross-country road-trip to stump for presidential nominee John Kerry\, there is a not-so-secret hope that the trip will provide Farah the sweet release she craves. The trio soon finds that wide-eyed optimism isn’t always a surefire catalyst for sex or politics — even in a swing state. \nMeera Menon’s directorial debut artfully captures a generation’s mixture of hope and youthful disillusionment in the fledgling years of a post-9/11 world\, and points a finger at the way national discourse shapes the identity and sexual politics of young women. An ode to female companionship a la Thelma & Louise\, and with all the raunchy humor of Bridesmaids\, Menon subverts the classic tropes of the road-trip film in favor of a new American feminism\, complete with discussions of female grooming and sexual desire. Winner of the Nora Ephron Prize at the 2013 Tribeca Film Festival. \nThis film also plays on March 14\, 2014: Pacific Film Archive\, 7:00 pm.

SUMMARY:3rd i co-presents "Siddharth" at CAAMFest
DESCRIPTION:In New Delhi\, twelve-year-old Siddharth is sent by his father Mahendra to work in a trolley factory in another province to help support their family\, which includes his mother Suman and sister Pinky. Siddharth is supposed to come home in one month for Diwali. When he fails to return or call\, his distraught father begins a desperate search to find his missing son. \nA chain-wallah by trade (he fixes zippers in the street)\, Mahendra (Rajesh Tailang) is faced with many obstacles: he has no money\, he’s illiterate\, and\, perhaps most heartbreaking of all\, he has no photograph of his son. The authorities\, who scold an already guilt-ridden man for allowing his son to become a child labourer\, believe that Siddharth may have been abducted and trafficked; Mahendra is warned that in a population of more than a billion people\, a kidnapped child is virtually untraceable after two days. \nDirector Richie Mehta deftly brings to life Mahendra’s moving\, tangled\, and often futile-seeming journey with a neorealist touch that transforms it into a genuine human portrait. Mehta sets this quest within a hard-working community that is poor in so many ways\, yet rich in family and love. Beautifully paced\, the film’s emotional spectrum is thoughtfully measured\, resulting in deeply felt responses that avoid melodrama. \nAs he did in his remarkable debut film Amal\, Mehta presents us with a modern day fable about searching — for someone\, and much more. Riddled with mysteries\, Siddharth reminds us that sometimes there simply are no easy answers. A powerful story about the ramifications of a single decision and the limitations that result from poverty\, it underscores that\, as India itself has so often done\, in the face of the unspeakable one must keep moving forward.

SUMMARY:3rd i co-presents "Jadoo" at the Sundance Kabuki
DESCRIPTION:3rd i co-presents at CAAMFest 2014. \nAmit Gupta’s Jadoo begins with Shalini (played by the sweet-looking Amara Karan)\, who has just been proposed to by Mark (the handsome Tom Mison). Cue the drama when audience members realize that Mark has not yet met his father-in-law\, Raja (comedic Harish Patel). It is implied he may have difficulty fitting into Shalini’s family’s lifestyle. \nWhen Shalini returns to Leicester to visit her father\, she realizes she may never get the perfect marriage ceremony. It has been two decades since her father and Uncle Jagi have spoken to one another. Will Shalini’s wedding be enough to bring them together again\, or will she have to resort to other resources to resolve the family feud? \nWritten for laughter\, tears and the desire to instantaneously eat everything on the screen\, Gupta pens a heartwarming story about family and community. More than the implications of interracial romance found in My Big Fat Greek Wedding\, Jadoo delves into the dilemmas of misunderstood intentions\, regardless of religion or ethnicity. \nThis film also plays at the Pacific Film Archive Theater on March 21\, 2014 at 8:45 pm

SUMMARY:3rd i presents "I for India"
DESCRIPTION:3rd i Films and the Asian American and Asian Diaspora studies Presents: I for India. Preceded by conversations on South Asian diaspora Films with Professor Irum Shiekh and Ivan Jaigirdar (3rd i). \nIn this award winning feature-length gem of a documentary\, filmmaker Sandhya Suri reveals a deeply personal archive of immigration\, identity and belonging through the eyes of one South Asian family and their two movie cameras. \nIn 1965\, Yash Pal Suri left India to pursue his medical career in England with the aim of one day returning to practice in his homeland. Spurred by inadequate long distance telephone service\, he purchased two Super-8 film cameras\, two projectors and two reel-to-reel recorders and sent one set to his parents back home. Over the next forty years Yash shared the idiosyncrasies of his life abroad with his parents while they shared the comforting mundanity of home — each holding firmly to the dream of their imminent reunion. \n“★★★★ A miraculous mini-epic… terrifically warm\, watchable film-making.” The Guardian\n“A movie that’s both deeply personal and surprisingly universal.” Jeanette Catsoulis\, The New York Times \n“Critic’s Pick! Sandhya Suri’s lyrical look at the life of her British-Indian expatriate family over the years — much of it through home-movie footage — could have easily been an artless and self-indulgent wallow\, but in the director’s remarkably sure hands\, it becomes a work of art.” New York Magazine

SUMMARY:3rd i co-presents Karsh Kale: Classical Science Fiction
DESCRIPTION:Producer and multi-instrumentalist Karsh Kale performs his brainchild\, Classical Science Fiction\, breaking down the traditional constructs of Indian classical music while maintaining its emphasis on rhythm\, scale\, and improvisation. Karsh has put together an all-star ensemble of musicians who are rooted in traditional styles yet creating new paths in Indian classical\, electronica\, blues\, jazz\, rock\, and ghazal. \nKarsh is equally comfortable DJ-ing at the closing night of the Burning Man Festival as he is playing tabla with the late sarangi maestro Ustad Sultan Khan\, rock icon Lenny Kravitz\, or R&B songstress Alycia Keys. He is at home performing with his childhood hero Ustad Zakir Hussain\, or as a member of the super group Tabla Beat Science\, or orchestrating and composing for Bollywood films. He is considered by many as the face of the emerging independent music scene in India. \n“Karsh Kale has established himself as a spokesman for a generation of music that incorporates electronica\, dance grooves and classical Indian sound” SF Chronicle \nClick here to buy tickets!

SUMMARY:3rd i co-presents "The Seventh Walk"
DESCRIPTION:In The Seventh Walk (Saatvin Sair)\, acclaimed experimental filmmaker Amit Dutta returns to Northern India’s Kangra valley\, the lush mountain setting featured in his previous work Nainsukh (SFIFF 2011). As in the prior film\, here Dutta considers the region’s rich visual arts tradition through the oeuvre of a native artist\, in this case the contemporary landscape painter Paramjit Singh. Deftly blending sound\, image and text\, this subtly hypnotic film meditates upon the figure of Singh commingled with surreal tableaux inspired by the artist’s paintings. First glimpsed wandering the valley’s dense woodlands\, the painter is seen peering through the sun-dappled canopy; soon he spies a mysterious footprint and follows the forest path to the base of a gnarled old tree. There he sits in Buddha-like repose while Dutta’s protean camera conjures a series of arresting images: rocks defy gravity and levitate gently upwards; lichens and moss multiply in layered afterimages mimicking Singh’s intricate brushstrokes; and a celestial maiden takes to the sky\, bearing ambrosial milk to the artist’s darkened atelier. Dutta masterfully weaves these iconic passages together with Singh’s painterly technique\, merging the still and moving image into an impressionistic assemblage that pays homage to the legends\, folk traditions and artistry of this unique corner of India. –Paul Meyers \nTHE SEVENTH WALK (Saatvin Sair)\nSCHEDULE\nApril 26\, 2014\n1:45 p.m.\nBAM/PFA \nThis film also plays twice more during the festival: \nApril 29\, 2014 7:15 p.m.\nSundance Kabuki Cinema \nMay 1\, 2014 \,5:00 p.m.\nSundance Kabuki Cinema \n
