Came across a set of short films by four of the celebrated Indian film makers on AIDS. Conceptualized by Mira Nair, this venture is funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation to increase awareness of AIDS. The four short films are by Mira Nair, Vishal Bharadwaj, Santosh Sivan, and Farhan Akhtar. These are available from the movie download service Jaman (more on the site on my tech blog .) as part of their AIDS Jaago section . They are available for download, or as streaming video (pretty nice quality). Just finished the first one, Migration by Mira Nair . Pretty nice short, focusing on how AIDS is a disease beyond the societal class. Decent acting by all the actors. Shiney Ahuja is a little bit too urban looking to pull off a villager though. Still its a very decent performance from him. Mira Nair's craft is very much evident albeit this being a short film. Will update the rest after watching each of the movies. Update: Finished watching Blood Brothers by Vishal Bharadwaj....
Not many confessions...Not too dangerous...At times a little out of mind!
