Lamakaan invites you to a series of films on Palestine.

Stitching Palestine is the first part of the solidarity film festival of Palestine.

Directed by Directed by Carol Mansour

Synopsis: Twelve Palestinian women sit before us and talk of their life before the Diaspora, of their memories, of their lives and of their identity. Their narratives are connected by the enduring thread of the ancient art of embroidery. Twelve resilient, determined and articulate women from disparate walks of life: lawyers, artists, housewives, activists, architects, and politicians stitch together the story of their homeland, of their dispossession, and of their unwavering determination that justice will prevail. Through their stories, the individual weaves into the collective, yet remaining distinctly personal. Twelve women, twelve life-spans, and stories from Palestine; a land whose position was fixed on the map of the world, but is now embroidered on its face.

తెలంగాణ అసెంబ్లీ ఎన్నికల నేపథ్యంలో రాజకీయ పార్టీలు ఆకర్షణీయమైన మేనిఫెస్టోలతో బరిలోకి దిగాయి. సామాన్యుడిని ఉక్కిరి బిక్కిరి చేసేంతగా హామీల వర్షం కురిపిస్తున్నాయి. పోలింగ్‌ తేదీకి రోజుల వ్యవధి మాత్రమే మిగిలింది. మరి ప్రజలేం కోరుకుంటున్నారు? పార్టీల హామీలతో సామాన్యుడు సంతృప్తి వ్యక్తం చేస్తున్నాడా? ప్రత్యేక రాష్ట్ర ఉద్యమంలో క్రియశీలక పాత్ర పోషించిన విద్యార్థి, యువత ఆకాంక్షలు నెరవేరాయా?

Some universal truths never fade, like the one below:

“For the want of a nail the shoe was lost,
For the want of a shoe the horse was lost,
For the want of a horse the rider was lost,
For the want of a rider the battle was lost,
For the want of a battle the kingdom was lost,
And all for the want of a horseshoe-nail.”

Very often the "Nail" can be referred to as just one small act in the right direction, that can make all the difference in our life. Yet, we cannot defy our habitual patterns and keep struggling with a hope that "One day things might be fine, and very often that 'one-day' for most of us becomes the day, from where the U-turn becomes impossible. And if you are reading this, this very truth must be a part of your life, in some or the other form, undeniable.

The art of drawing a SMILE, is a very simple workshop, which teaches us to fix that very 'nail' for which even a battle can be lost.

Saadat Hasan Manto is known to most of us as the ‘serious, brooding’ playwright.
But Manto also authored a series of hilarious urdu radio plays on the bitter-sweet squabbles between couples.

Each play’s title begins with Aao… (Come) and the series is written around three primary characters, Kishore, his wife Lajwanti and his friend Narayan. Darpan Theatre Group presents Mazhaiya Mizaj E Manto, his comical take on the sweet and tangy relationship between a couple and will be staging two stories from Manto’s lesser-known ‘Aao...’ series, Aao Khoj Karein and Aao Kahani Likhein. The plot revolves around delightful banter between Kishore and Lajwanti and the timely interception of Narayan in each new situation.

Aao kahani likhein’ has Lajwanti insisting that she and Kishore “write a story together”. Narayan joins them and three drive the story in three different directions till they end up with a real comical script.

Aao Khoj Lagayein is a story where Kishore tries to find the thief and how they react when they come to know about the thief's motive behind stealing?

As Darpan revisits plays from Manto's Aao series, be a part of this beautiful adventure and witness the humorous scrapes and escapades between the Kishore, Lajwanti and Narayan

Lamakaan invites you to a series of films on Palestine.

Stitching Palestine is the first part of the solidarity film festival of Palestine.

Directed by Directed by Carol Mansour

Synopsis: Twelve Palestinian women sit before us and talk of their life before the Diaspora, of their memories, of their lives and of their identity. Their narratives are connected by the enduring thread of the ancient art of embroidery. Twelve resilient, determined and articulate women from disparate walks of life: lawyers, artists, housewives, activists, architects, and politicians stitch together the story of their homeland, of their dispossession, and of their unwavering determination that justice will prevail. Through their stories, the individual weaves into the collective, yet remaining distinctly personal. Twelve women, twelve life-spans, and stories from Palestine; a land whose position was fixed on the map of the world, but is now embroidered on its face.

This November let's celebrate one of the most intellectual directors of all time, Woody Allen's films, as we celebrate his birthday too.
Heywood Allen (born Allan Stewart Konigsberg; November 30, 1935) is an American filmmaker, actor, and comedian whose career spans more than six decades. Allen has received many accolades, including the most nominations for the Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay, with 16. He has won four Academy Awards, ten BAFTA Awards, two Golden Globe Awards and a Grammy Award, as well as nominations for a Emmy Award and a Tony Award. Allen was awarded an Honorary Golden Lion in 1995, the BAFTA Fellowship in 1997, an Honorary Palme d'Or in 2002, and the Golden Globe Cecil B. DeMille Award in 2014. Two of his films have been inducted into the National Film Registry by the Library of Congress.
Allen began his career writing material for television in the 1950s, alongside Mel Brooks, Carl Reiner, Larry Gelbart, and Neil Simon. He also published several books of short stories and wrote humor pieces for The New Yorker. In the early 1960s, he performed as a stand-up comedian in Greenwich Village, where he developed a monologue style (rather than traditional jokes) and the persona of an insecure, intellectual, fretful nebbish. During this time, he released three comedy albums, earning a Grammy Award for Best Comedy Album nomination for the self-titled Woody Allen (1964).

తెలంగాణ అసెంబ్లీ ఎన్నికల నేపథ్యంలో రాజకీయ పార్టీలు ఆకర్షణీయమైన మేనిఫెస్టోలతో బరిలోకి దిగాయి. సామాన్యుడిని ఉక్కిరి బిక్కిరి చేసేంతగా హామీల వర్షం కురిపిస్తున్నాయి. పోలింగ్‌ తేదీకి రోజుల వ్యవధి మాత్రమే మిగిలింది. మరి ప్రజలేం కోరుకుంటున్నారు? పార్టీల హామీలతో సామాన్యుడు సంతృప్తి వ్యక్తం చేస్తున్నాడా? ప్రత్యేక రాష్ట్ర ఉద్యమంలో క్రియశీలక పాత్ర పోషించిన విద్యార్థి, యువత ఆకాంక్షలు నెరవేరాయా?

In the wake of the Telangana Assembly elections, political parties have entered the fray with attractive manifestos. Promises are raining down to the point of suffocating the common man.

Some universal truths never fade, like the one below:

“For the want of a nail the shoe was lost,
For the want of a shoe the horse was lost,
For the want of a horse the rider was lost,
For the want of a rider the battle was lost,
For the want of a battle the kingdom was lost,
And all for the want of a horseshoe-nail.”

Very often the "Nail" can be referred to as just one small act in the right direction, that can make all the difference in our life. Yet, we cannot defy our habitual patterns and keep struggling with a hope that "One day things might be fine, and very often that 'one-day' for most of us becomes the day, from where the U-turn becomes impossible. And if you are reading this, this very truth must be a part of your life, in some or the other form, undeniable.

Saadat Hasan Manto is known to most of us as the ‘serious, brooding’ playwright.
But Manto also authored a series of hilarious urdu radio plays on the bitter-sweet squabbles between couples.

Each play’s title begins with Aao… (Come) and the series is written around three primary characters, Kishore, his wife Lajwanti and his friend Narayan. Darpan Theatre Group presents Mazhaiya Mizaj E Manto, his comical take on the sweet and tangy relationship between a couple and will be staging two stories from Manto’s lesser-known ‘Aao...’ series, Aao Khoj Karein and Aao Kahani Likhein. The plot revolves around delightful banter between Kishore and Lajwanti and the timely interception of Narayan in each new situation.

Aao kahani likhein’ has Lajwanti insisting that she and Kishore “write a story together”. Narayan joins them and three drive the story in three different directions till they end up with a real comical script.

Aao Khoj Lagayein is a story where Kishore tries to find the thief and how they react when they come to know about the thief's motive behind stealing?

As Darpan revisits plays from Manto's Aao series, be a part of this beautiful adventure and witness the humorous scrapes and escapades between the Kishore, Lajwanti and Narayan
