SYNOPSIS

Supplement

Director: Krzysztof Zanussi

Synopsis: Supplement is a love story of a young couple. The lover is torn in half for fear of sinking into the common run or rat race for money. He even contemplates joining a monastic state to steer clear of the hardships of day-to-day living. The girl is a university student and makes her living as a wardrobe assistant in film projects and fashion shows. She is afraid that she is standing in her boyfriend's way to self-fulfillment. But equally she wonders whether she should not force him to face up to life.

Hari Villu (The Rainbow)

Director: B. Narsing Rao

Synopsis: Death is the ultimate reality. How you face this reality is the true indicator of character. Even if it means the character is an adolescent boy with a passionate zest for life, for its simple pleasures and myriad beauties. Hari Villu takes you into the heart and mind of a gifted young boy under the sentence of imminent death and describes how he copes with this tragic challenge.
