Sujoy Prasad Chatterjee's directorial debut to be screened at the House of Commons
Sujoy Prasad Chatterjee Interdisciplinary artiste Sujoy Prasad Chatterjee's directorial debut HOME is all set to be screened at the House of Commons in the British Parliament on June 23. The screening, supported by the UK-based Bengal Heritage Foundation, comes at a time when the idea of 'home' is under global scrutiny, and is fragmented by questions of identity, belonging, and displacement. Inspired by Arundhathi Subramaniam's poem, HOME is similar to a meditation on the noise and silence that define displacement, echoing the fractures that persist in a rapidly polarising world. The short film also engages deeply with gender politics, featuring twelve leading women actors from the Kolkata film industry in a powerful ensemble. Aparajita Adhya in HOME Presented by National Award-winning actor Rituparna Sengupta and mentored by veteran theatre personality Sohag Sen, the film was earlier screened at the Kolkata International Film Festival, Birmingham Indian Film Festival, and the IVIEW WORLD Human Rights Film Festival in Delhi. 'I am very glad that the film is being screened at the House of Commons,' says Sujoy Prasad Chatterjee, adding, 'Hopefully it will raise some important questions about diasporic identity, discrimination on all counts and, of course, the lens of gender.' Speaking on the initiative, Koushik Chatterjee, president, Bengal Heritage Foundation, noted: 'We believe in narrowing gaps, promoting diversity, and upholding artistic visions that reflect the times. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Direct Shopping From Adidas Franchise Store, Up To 50% Off Original Adidas Shop Now Undo The short film is an important manifestation of the times we live through.'
