Baithullah
Hindi Film with English Subtitles (9 mins)

Millions of children are engaged in child labour in India, and the number is growing every year. And with that, millions of childhood dreams are never realised as a result of a lack of education. Baitullah is the story of one such child with a dream in the maddening metropolis of Mumbai.

Directed by Jitendra Rai

7 Star Dinosor Entertainment
Hindi Film with English Subtitles (20 mins)

A few years ago, two brothers, Sudhir and Vinod, began a business together called 7 Star Dinosor Entertainment. Dressed as giant dinosaurs they would dance to Bollywood songs at weddings, birthday parties and mall events. Today, we find them two years deep into the pandemic. No public functions are allowed anymore, leaving the brothers jobless and hungry. The giant dinosaurs are crammed with them into a tiny single room of a shabby tenement. Their food is running out and so is their patience.

Directed by Vaishali Naik
