Thriller:
A white English man and woman go to India with a British
Indian man who wears tattoos including a swastika and has never been to
India. They buy drugs and antiques, and are busy stuffing one into the
other in their budget hotel when a lot of police arrive. There's a neat
twist in that the white English man is fully at home and speaks the
language fluently. He's easy-going too, and negotiates a bribe. The
Indian police pick on and humiliate the British Indian man - he's
aggressive and rude which doesn't help - saying he's 'neither one thing
nor the other'. There's a 24-hour race to see if they can raise the
bribe money and get their seized passports back. Shot on location in
urban and (briefly) rural India, it's a taut action thriller with a
tight script. It feels exactly authentic to its backpacking scenario -
the uneven colour-matching fits its feel superbly - shot on buses,
cheap hotels, tourist stalls, street cafes, with lots of real people
seeming to be part of the film, and great performances from a large
cast.

Documentary:
in fact, nothing is as romantic as it seems or we think.
especially
for a small fisherman.once upon a time, you get up in the morning and
look through the horizon. your eyes are red. your hands are chappy. you
are cold. a fish yard protected by you, your father, his father, old
people of Foça or lycians since thousands of years has been wretched by
a big boat, say five tons of fish were caught overnight. and the yard
has finished forever. the fish has finished. the sea has finished. the
respect has finished. the love has finished. the neighbourhood has
finished; most of the greek neighbours have moved far away...
lie
and hypocrisy, greed and violence have started. that is what we are
living through in today’s mediterranean and in today’s world...we are
going to learn about the mediterranean sea, mother of seas.

their real country, in order to preserve their family name, and die in
their original lands. Osman agreed. So they packed everything ...
