Description

Encore: Bringing back some of the hottest documentaries for an encore presentation.

Award-winning filmmaker Sturla Gunnarsson's visually stunning documentary Monsoon is an exploration of chaos, creation and faith. Filmed across the Indian sub-continent, Monsoon charts the huge system’s annual journey from the southern state of Kerala to India's north-eastern state of Meghalaya, as it surges toward and gradually engulfs every region of the country. While the filmmakers document this powerful force of nature, they meet a remarkable group of individuals along the way whose lives are entwined by the phenomenon that some call 'the soul of India.' Monsoon is a cinematic journey into the terrain where nature, science, belief and wonder converge in one of the most astonishing landscapes on earth.

Director Sturla Gunnarsson will participate in Q&As on March 29 and 30.
