For Prithvi (a boy wonder who hopes to

be the sport’s next superstar like Sachin

Tendulkar), Sudhir (a fanatic who bikes

across India from game to game), and

Akshaya (a young girl who sees the

game as a way out of poverty), cricket

is a religion. Winner of both the Grand

Jury and Audience Awards for Best

Documentary at the 2013 Indian Film

Festival of Los Angeles (IFFLA), BEYOND

ALL BOUNDARIES follows the fascinating

stories of these three characters, leading

up to the World Cup of Cricket in the

spring of 2011, and chronicles their

struggle to celebrate this beloved sport

against overwhelming odds in life. Both

entertaining and enlightening, this is a

window, not just into the world of cricket,

but also into life in India in the 21st century.

When a schoolteacher who works out of

town asks his newlywed wife what she’d like

for a gift, her request is simple enough: a new

blouse made by the village’s famous tailor.

But when he can’t find the sample blouse

from which to copy her measurements, the

tailor suggests a risky plan involving the

husband ogling the village women’s figures to

try and match his wife’s chest size. A sweet

and funny love story with a twist, BLOUSE

won the Best Short Film Award at the 2014

New York Indian FilmFestival (NYIFF).

SIDDHARTH is the spellbinding tale of one

father’s journey across India in search of his

son. Mahendra is a chain-wallah, eking out

a living fixing zippers on the bustling streets

of New Delhi. To ease his financial woes, he

sends 12-year-old Siddharth to work in a distant

factory. When the boy doesn’t come home for

the Diwali holiday, Mahendra and his wife Suman

slowly begin to suspect that he was kidnapped

by child traffickers. With few resources and no

connections, the father desperately travels to

Punjab and Mumbai with the hope that whoever

took his boy might return him unharmed. A

powerful family drama both heart-rending and

suspenseful that won this year’s Audience Award

for Best Feature at the 2014 IFFLA, SIDDHARTH

sheds light on the estimated 44,000 children

that go missing in India every year.

“A modern-day neo-realistic fable and genuine spiritual journey. Beautifullyshot and acted.”

James Verniere, BOSTON HERALD

The auction houses of Calcutta used to be

where the rich and famous found the right high-

end objects to decorate their homes. Today,

the family-owned Russell Exchange is the last

one to remain and the oldest in India. Run by

younger brother Arshad for the last forty years,

the Exchange resembles more of a yard sale

than an elite auction site, but at least it is still

there. Now older brother Anwer is moving back

from England with hopes of using his Western

business acumen to bring the company into

the 21st century. No matter their intentions and

hopes, has time passed the Russell Exchange?

THE AUCTION HOUSE is an intimate, funny and

thoughtful portrait of two brothers, and a whole

nation, as they face the future by remembering

their past.

In director Mahesh Pailoor’s tender and touching

debut, Roshan Seth and Sendhil Ramamurthy

star as Ashok and Sid, an estranged father

and son brought back together by Ashok’s

unannounced arrival on Sid’s doorstep. Each

man has his secrets. Sid is recently separated

from his wife and on the brink of a career

collapse, while Ashok – officially in town for an

engineering convention – seeks to reunite with

an old flame (Oscar® winner Mary Steenburgen).

The two begin a tentative journey toward

reconciliation, but when Sid’s self-destructive

tendencies get the better of him, and the true

purpose of Ashok’s visit is revealed, parent

and child must work even harder to close the

rift between them. BRAHMIN BULLS is an

unforgettable, humorous, and authentic look

at the difficulties that come with maintaining a

family bond.
