The Countdown | Sci-fi Screening
Sat Nov 3, 5:00 PM
MSN Karthik
"The Countdown" can best be described as a tale of hope or the story of survival of humanity. It's an experimental film by an IITian filmmaker, MSN Karthik, in the Sci-Fi Thriller genre, in which an astronaut stuck on an unknown planet struggles to get back to his ship only to find that things are actually worse than expected. The film also revolves around the subject of the future of life on the planet.

This film is a product of Karthik's agile philosophy of low budget filmmaking to shoot in 48 hours, edit and release in 2 weeks, and it has been pulled off in an extremely frugal budget of under INR 5,500. The film was shot mainly in the coal mines in the state of Telangana, India.

After the screening of the film, there will be an interactive session with the director and the team behind the film, in which relevant topics that are covered in the film will be discussed, along with the talk on the journey of making of the film.
