"You Are My Sunday" Screening
Film Synopsis: Dodging the crowded bustle and choked streets of Mumbai, five thirtysomething friends find an outlet for their frustrations by playing Sunday soccer on Juhu Beach. Then, fate intervenes in the form of a sweet but senile old man, and they are forced to search for another space to play – an impossible task in Mumbai. Writer/Director Milind Dhaimade has a firm grip on the young, beleaguered Indian middle class with a story that shifts effortlessly from one young man to the next, focusing on their trouble forming relationships and, even more basic – on their difficulty in simply growing up.

“You Are My Sunday” is a film about men, but throughout, the women are the responsible, capable ones who hold down executive jobs, raise children with disabilities, or have extraordinary social skills that prove them capable of mending fences and hurts. “You Are My Sunday” is a charming and loving look at contemporary India.

Event Details
Join Heartland Film for a screening of 2014 Heartland Film Festival Grand Prize Winner, Narrative Feature "Siddharth" at the Indiana Historical Society.

Tickets: $20 / $17 members

Film Synopsis: “Siddharth” is the story of an impoverished and anguished father journeying across India in search of his only son who has disappeared. Mahendra is a chain-wallah, eking out a living fixing zippers on the bustling streets of New Delhi. To ease his financial woes, he sends twelve-year-old Siddharth to work in a distant factory. When the boy does not return for Diwali, as promised, Mahendra and his wife slowly come to accept that Siddharth could have been abducted by child traffickers. With few resources and virtually no experience of the world outside of Delhi, Mahendra bravely sets out for the Punjab, and Mumbai, hoping against hope to find his son unharmed.

“Ventilator” screening

Film Synopsis: Every year, the occasion of ‘Ganesh Utsav’ mobilizes the large Kamerkar clan as the one festival they religiously celebrate because of ancestral tradition. The arrival of their Ganpati idols is a mere three days away, but the news of the critical condition of Gajanan Kaka in Mumbai brings their preparations to a sudden halt. Gajanan Kaka has played a pivotal role in overseeing the family affairs and his condition dampens the preparatory spirit of the festival.

Gajanan Kaka is put on a ventilator and slowly the family members gather at the hospital. His son, his sister and some close family members refuse to accept the truth about his illness. Another family member, Raja (RK) - the ‘pride’ of the clan - arrives and galvanizes the family because he has become a successful Bollywood director. Even in such a somber moment, the lure of Bollywood calls loud and clear! In the midst of the chaos, it is Dada, the most sensible one, who relentlessly brings the gravity of the situation to the fore.

Film Synopsis: Dr. Rakhmabai (1864-1955) was an Indian woman who became one of the first practicing female doctors in colonial India. She was a social anomaly in many ways as she initiated the battle against gender discrimination within India. She was at the heart of a landmark legal case which led to the enactment of the Age of Consent Act, 1891. When she was eleven years old, she was married to a nineteen-year-old man – Daja Bhika - as was the custom of the day. She continued to live in the house of her widowed mother Jayantibai who had remarried. Her step-father, assistant surgeon Sakharam Arjun recognized her intelligence and delighted in teaching her the wisdom of ancient medicines and plants. When Dada asked Rakhmabai to move to his home, she refused and was soundly supported by her step-father. Her actions initiated a series of court cases which began in 1884, amid a groundswell of public debate on the horrors of child marriage. Her case won the support of many respected people, and when she made known her wish to study medicine, a fund was raised for her to travel and study medicine at the London School of medicine. She graduated and returned to India in 1895, becoming one of India's first women doctors. She left a legacy for women that remains intact today.
