SUMMARY:Interview Directed by Mrinal Sen
DESCRIPTION:In collaboration with Bangalore Film Forum (BFF)\, MAP is thril
 led to present the screening of Interview\, a groundbreaking 1971 Bengali 
 film directed by renowned filmmaker Mrinal Sen. This will be followed by a
  conversation between film critic Srikanth Srinivasan and film historian A
 shish Rajadhyaksha.\n\nInterview is a unique film that delves into the col
 onial hangover\, anti-establishment sentiments\, middle-class cowardice\, 
 and unemployment. The film\, which marked the debut of Ranjit Mallick\, wa
 s both a commercial and critical success\, praised for its innovative narr
 ative and cinematic techniques.\n\nThe Radical Seventies is a series that 
 is specially crafted for youth to engage with older classics that resonate
  with our contemporary times\, in familiar and unexpected ways. Through th
 e 1970s\, Indian cinema saw several major experiments in cinema — often 
 made in direct conversation with radical politics. The decade began in the
  late 1960s and spilled over into the early 1980s. While the distinct look
  of such a cinema may well have been inaugurated in Mrinal Sen’s celebra
 ted Calcutta trilogy\, similar tendencies are parallelly in evidence in ot
 her Indian cities around the same time.\n\nThis film screening is the firs
 t of our six-month long series\, ‘The Radical Seventies’\, part of our
  youth engagement programming for AUD/VID which is a collaboration between
  MAP and Bangalore Film Forum and co-curated by Ashish Rajadhyaksha.\n\nIn
  collaboration with: \nNFDC-National Film Archive of India (NFAI)\n\nImage
