The Way We Live – Mark II/Indian Edition – The International Short Film Festival will travel through Kolkata, Delhi, Mumbai, Pune, Chennai, Trivandrum and Bangalore. This Festival on disability is curated by Gregor Kern from Germany, together with Dr. Mohan Agashe in India.
The basic objective of the Festival is to spread awareness, empathy and not sympathy toward the differently abled. The programme is not to discuss about changing government policies or what should be planned in the city. The change we expect should take place in the mind after the Festival.
“These short films are like dietary supplements. They not only entertain you, they create empathy in you and produce ‘Awareness’ in the brain essential for thinking. And empathy combined with intelligent thinking is Education’- Healthy way of looking at the world. Viewing good film is a non-invasive tool of learning particularly about inclusive society. Just come and watch, it is getting dark… so see some bright films!” – Dr. Mohan Agashe
