Film Synopsis:
If God would come down to earth and try to earn a living in Bombay, most probably he would very soon become successful as a voice over artiste, lending his voice to thousands of hindi movies and even more documentaries and public service films in India.
A melo-dramatic docu-drama with voice-over in stop-motion and longtime-exposure.
interview with film maker: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_k66lFt1E4s
Technicalities:
The film was shot on 16mm stock, using a Krasnogorsk-3 camera, which was modified to Super 16 mm gauge. Most of the footage was shot with a 2 minute long time exposure for each frame. To be able to combine the stop motion technique with long exposure times, the camera was triggered by an interface built by Dirk Göken.

On a local train eyeballs keep tracking passing details in a rhythmic choreography until the glances of the protagonists meet each other. All of a sudden they only have eyes for each other and forget about the world around them. The film itself leaves behind its own formal structure and switches to sudden emotionality.
According to the regulations of the Straight 8 competition this film was shot with only one super 8 cartridge in cronological order and without any editing or post production. The soundtrack was edited blindly while the film itself was no processed yet. At the festival the projectionist would start the projector and press play on the CD player when the first image appears on screen.
A bright and sunny afternoon on a fairground in South Bombay. Pooja bumps into Rahul and they both fall in love. But their happiness won't last too long. Soon their love fades into futility. More and more they become part of an emotional and aesthetic system, consisting of codecs, loops and variations. Situations reincarnate. Pooja and Rahul don't even realize that they've become victims of a filmi masala formula that starts taking over control of their lifes. Will they ever find a way out of this trap... ?
