Hidden in the mountains of the Himalayas, Malana was like a lost world. A reticent community fostering a primitive existence in harmony with nature and harbouring their own unique model of democracy of consensus where they do select and not elect!

They have also been producing some of the best quality hashish.

A real life story of transition; an ancient civilization being invaded and obliterated by the modern democracy. Narrated in an epic structure, a visual essay from the edge of the world with a universal message of trust, peace and eternal unity.

Synopsis

from the edge of the world…

‘The most relevant film of today’s time…’ – Anurag Kashyap

Amlan Datta

A graduate of Film & Television Institute of India (FTII), Pune. Has been making films as an independent filmmaker and producer under production company Animagineer with his brother Anirban. They have been conferred Indian National Film Awards thrice.

‘Bom’ is his first feature length film.

His last film ‘Cockadoodle Do’ was premiered in prestigious Berlinale in 2008.

‘I went for an ancient democracy and world’s best hashish but what silently pulled me towards Malana was my destiny.’

controversialcritical courageous

National recognition for the film is a victory not just for Datta but for the simple people of Malana.

created news everywhere it went

The 40-year-old director hopes that the government will make special sanctions for the people of Malana, who along with their sovereignty have lost their means to a livelihood.

…the documentary never reeks of partisanship, with all points of view represented equitably. …a rare sensitivity to the matter at hand, Bom ... Turns into compelling cinema.

‘One of the best documentaries I have seen in a while’ – Subhra Gupta

Very few Indian documentaries concentrate so much on visual narrative.

Stunning…breaks the boundaries of the documentary form in a way…

‘BOM’ is a poignant, thought-provoking film. Watch it and get enlightened.

not just a film… a life

… The movie stops with an open debate for its viewers but Amlan's journey is still on. He has beenhelping many villagers take to alternative practices,so that their dependence on hash trade goes down.

The Kanashi dialect, declared endangered by UNESCO Atlas of the World's Languages, may soon get a new lease of life…

Amlan founded a non-profit enterprise initiating several social welfare projects from adopting children, spreading education & awareness to developing alternative means of sustenance for the Brothers of Malana.
