4-Day Film-Music Package On Caste-Based Discrimination

by The Daily Eye Team January 13 2017, 2:01 pm Estimated Reading Time: 0 mins, 34 secs

Thought-provoking stories of the trials and resistance against caste-based discrimination are the focus of a four-day film and music package at the ongoing third edition of the Kochi-Muziris Biennale (KMB). Curated by noted film journalist Meenakshi Shedde, the package - titled 'The Die is Caste' - will start tomorrow at 6.30 pm, a KMB release said here today. The screenings and performances at the Pavilion in Cabral Yard, Fort Kochi, will be preceded by Q&A sessions moderated by Shedde. 'The Die is Caste' features four films exploring a number of narratives - romance, education, landlessness among others - but centred around the struggles of the marginalised castes.
