Somi und ihr Mann lernten sich kennen und lieben, als sie an der Seite der Naxaliten kämpften, einer kommunistischen Guerillagruppe, die seit den 1960er Jahren für die Rechte der Stammesgemeinschaften in Indien kämpft. Nach einem Jahrzehnt des bewaffneten Kampfes verließ das Paar die Bewegung und ergab sich der Polizei.

Seitdem bemühen sie sich, eine neue Identität zu schaffen, ihre beiden Kinder zu erziehen und schließlich ihre gewalttätige Vergangenheit mit dem sehnlichen Wunsch nach Integration in die feindliche indische Gesellschaft in Einklang zu bringen.

 

Somi and her husband met and fell in love while fighting alongside the Naxalites, a communist guerrilla group that has been fighting since the 1960s for the rights of the tribal communities of India. After a decade of armed struggle, the couple deserted the movement and surrendered to the police.

Ever since, they have been striving to forge a new identity, educate their two children and eventually reconcile their violent past with the fervent desire to integrate into the hostile Indian society.

This year, the festival will take place mainly online. To our great excitement, we are returning to the cinema with two screenings on 24 July 2021, 6pm and 8.30pm. The films will be shown at Cinema-Kino (corner of Bolzstraße and Königstraße).
For the first time, we also expect guests to attend the films and are already looking forward to an exchange with the audience at the venue.

More info and little highlights can be enjoyed by those who follow us on Facebook and Instagram.

SUPPORT INDIA IN THE FIGHT AGAINST COVID-19

The second Corona wave seems to have no end in India. We keep receiving messages from filmmaker friends who have been hit hard by the impacts of the pandemic.
Many organisations are currently collecting donations. We decided to draw attention to the German Red Cross, which supports Covid 19 projects worldwide, including in India.
Even though India seems far away, we are close in our thoughts.
