Film Festival at Somaiya: Day Two

I was feeling too tired today, still I went to watch the films. and to add to my agony, the screening delayed due to some technical problems. Finally the scahedule was cut down from 18 films to 11. Oh God!! I just hate it when anyone or anything gets delayed...
So we had to wait and ultimately it paid off well.. All the films screened today were just excellent. Perfect. And before we started with the films, our dear professor Amma Ma'm gave an insihght on creative writing for script.
The Review:
Of the eleven films shown today, 9 were animation movies, one documentary and one was a short film. All the nine animated by FD, are great ones. They give an idea as to how the early animations used to be? Not only that, such films are also giving a good message throught it. You said it satirically poor on the common man's life. The Thinker shows how Human Being develped over the years, and how they brought pollution in here?
The Balloon condemns the "rumourism" how a small balloon is developed into a big one.
The threads (Unity) Endgame (rising nuclearism) and She could do you proud (female Infanticide) , these three are the films with the message to give. They speak on the respective problems and how people react to it.
Next one to be screened, was "The Inner Eye" by Satyajeet Ray. The Documentary is about Binod Bihari Mukharji a blind artist at Shantikenatan. What else to say???
After Inner Eye, how to get it to the others.
Today's final one was 58 min film :( Jataner Jami ase sangat firvat rahatat.
