MUMBAI:Independent film 'Kajarya',has been selected for the prestigious Montreal Film Festival 2014.Directed by Madhureeta Anand, the film will be showcased in the 'Focus on World Cinema' section
at the Montreal World Film Festival 2014, 21
August - 1 September.
An assured second feature from the director,
the film is an original voice about female
foeticide in India. It is a story of a rookie
journalist in Delhi who exposes a woman,
believed to embody Goddess Kali, who ritually
kills female newborns in a village nearby. The
story questions notions of women’s
emancipation and feminism as it weaves
through an interplay of drama and events and
explores how India continues to live in many
centuries at the same time.
'Kajarya' stars Meenu Hooda, Ridhima Sud and
Kuldeep Ruhil. The film had its world premiere
at the Dubai International Film Festival. It has
found critical appreciation internationally since
and has been selected by the Forbes India
magazine as the #1 in the Top 5 Films to See
in 2014.
The movie is produced by Starfire Movies and
co-produced by Ekaa Films and Overdose Joint.
Starfire's next co-production is 'Ludo', with
Idyabooster and Overdose Joint. 'Ludo' is a
fantasy-thriller horror film by the maverick
directors duo Q and Nikon, and is currently in
post production. http://www.indiantelevision.com/movies/hollywood/kajarya-makes-it-to-montreal-world-film-festival-140806
