Tingya

I went for the screening of the movie Tingya at Pedestrian Pics which was held at IAT by Pedestrian pictures.

The movie is visualizing the experience of a small family Marathi Village in "Present India". I felt completely disengaged with the movie. I should have been more engaged with the movie many years back. Might be the current experiences of life is giving me a different view to incidents in the movie.


One of my friends at work was talking to me some time back. His distant relative is suffering from cancer and the doctor is suggesting an expensive and a painful treatment. But doctor is not sure the patient will survive even if the treatment is done. This puts the kids in trouble. To go for an expensive and painful treatment for a dying patient(ROI)? I just thought about it while watching the movie.



There is this question of survive or suicide. You might have to leave the valuable stuff to survive. There is no value for anything you possess unless it is providing you return. For surrviing you sell the liabalites to get more asset. Else you will not survive. It is cruel, but it is fact. Or the nature will kill you.



There was a discussion about the farmer suicides after the movie screening. My friend Shibu who came with me for the screening had other commitments and was already late for it. So we didn't wait for the discussion.



Looking for the next screening.
