I know, I have been going on and on and on about it since I saw the film. But trust me, it deserves all that and more. The film had a limited release in Mumbai and so, those of you who missed it, here’s one more chance. Dont miss it this time and don’t crib later.  Details follows.

(BTW, here is the post that I wrote after watching the film. )

The screening is organised by GraFTII Adda.

Date: Saturday, 08 May 2010

Time: 18:00 – 21:00

Location: Movielabs, Near Goregaon Flyover, Opposite Image Restaurant, S.V.Road, Goregaon, Mumbai.

Tickets :  75/- for FTII alumni, and 100/- for non-FTII viewers, to cover the projection costs.

According to the official release, the synopsis of Vihir is as follows…

A story of two adolescent boys Sameer and Nachiket (cousins who are best friends) standing on the crossroads of life… to choose between the life that leads to petty worldly small existence or the life of free existence that would let them spread their wings and soar high in open skies…

They play a game of hide and seek in a rather unusual way. Where one cousin hides in death and the other is looking for him in the life around him. . . . Samir’s search leads him towards the experience of oneness where he can unite with Nachiket again!

The cast and the crew of the film will also be there. It includes…

Director : Umesh Kulkarni.  DoP :  Sudheer Palsane. Editor :  Niraj Voralia

Music Director : Mangesh Dhakde.  Sound Designer :  Anthony B J Ruban
