A kiss to build a theme on
This award-winning directorial debut by lyricist Varun Grover, takes off from three men watching a ‘kissing scene’ involving two men in a movie and timing it. Two of them are on the Censor Board, while the third is the filmmaker. Through it, Grover uncovers shame and pride, two uniquely human inventions that have been instrumental in shaping modern civilisations. The rise of right wing authority across the world has made these emotions the showstoppers of every parade last decade. Kiss explores the origins of these concepts in an unusual setting and genre. The screening will be followed by a Q/A with Grover.
