Serendipity Art Festival – Let’s Talk
26th November – Whose India is it anyway? India vs Bharat
The relationship between fantasy and reality isn’t merely a motif within films; it is one of the defining traits of what films, as such, are. Films simultaneously offer the opportunity to reflect contemporary culture, to distort it, or to fabricate a world that doesn’t exist. With India being a country of extremes, of parallel worlds that never intersect, what effect do the fantasy worlds depicted in films have on the incredibly diverse audiences who consume them?
Sanjeev Bhargava, founder and director of Seher and Uma daCunha, film journalist, writer and researcher, will be the panelists for this discussion.

The Entertainment Society of Goa (ESG) & M/S Canterbury, in association with Cherylyne Pret Couture and Vladimir Furtado, organized Goa’s first Government backed, fashion design trade event, at the the IFFI Goa Fashion Weekend.
