Goutam Ghose directed ‘
Raahgir
’ which received appreciation from all corners is now an official selection at the 23rd UK Asian Film Festival. The social drama will open the festival which starts on May 26.
“The film showcases how Indian reality differs in the cities and in a poor tribal village. It’s a beautiful story of humanity that is still alive among the poorest of the poor. It is a celebration of empathy, humanity despite a struggle for survival. It deals with a story of India’s impoverished people who live in the forests and can hardly make ends meet. They have limited dreams and desires. Their biggest concern is trying to gather the day’s food. The film celebrates the fact that despite the daily struggle for survival, the elements of humanity are still alive in these people,” national award-winning director Goutam Ghose had said earlier while explaining the film’s storyline.
