25 Jul 2013 21:30:00 GMT

CGIS South, Tsai Auditorium S010
Thu., July 25, 2013, 5:30 – 8:30 p.m.

Ontorjatra (‘The Inner Journey’) is a 2006 Bangla film exploring complex issues of identity and dislocation in a diaspora world. A divorced mother and her son return to Bangladesh after 15 years in London after the ex-husband’s sudden death and funeral. The story follows the transformative experience of the mother and son as they come to terms with this loss. For the British-bred son with no memory of his father or “homeland”, the return is a journey of rediscovery and self-actualization. For the mother the journey is a mixture of anxiety in anticipation of a difficult reunion and nostalgia for her youth. By the directors who brought Matir Moina, ('The Clay Bird'), which won several awards at the Cannes Film Festival. This film screening is open to the public.
