On day 4 of Mumbai Film Festival, films shortlisted for Dimensions Mumbai competition were shown. These were short films by young filmmakers of the city based on any aspect of life in the metropolis. However, it seems filmmakers can’t resist images of the sea, the promenades, the Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus, Haji Ali and other symbols that have typified the city to death. But there were a few films that explored beyond and caught one’s attention:
Bombay Snow by Chinmay Nagesh Dalvi
Bombay Snow is a beautiful film telling the story of migrant laborers in the city. A laborer’s son arrives in Mumbai with his father and is disturbed by the growing distance between his parents. He runs into a sex-worker who is seen applying powder on her face. Bombay snow, it is called. What is it for, asks the boy and the woman answers that the powder can attract men to her.
