i Want MY<br />

countrY Back<br />

by astrid schult<br />

In the year of the presidential elections, America is<br />

fighting relentlessly with itself, with its driving<br />

force being its infuriated citizens: supporters and<br />

sympathizers of the Tea Party movement. The<br />

dissatisfied, the disappointed and the unassured have<br />

come together in countless groups. They’re making<br />

a stand against Obama’s healthcare system and against<br />

the strengthening of rights for black people and the<br />

unemployed – achievements that are seen in Europe<br />

as a basic requirement for any fair and socially<br />

responsible society. Who are the people behind these<br />

groups that are protesting so vehemently and<br />

loudly ? What pushes a U.S.-citizen towards the<br />

right of the Republican Party ?<br />

i Was Born in DelHi<br />

by Bishnu Dev Halder<br />

Two sisters, Josna and Hasina run away from poverty,<br />

marriage and the impending kitchen-centric life in their<br />

conservative village, to the city, Delhi, for a new life.<br />

After six years in the city, the sisters are hounded by<br />

insecurity. Ironically, they find marriage to be their only<br />

path to a secure life. They get desperate as they find<br />

it difficult to get married. Their desperation calls for<br />

desperate choices. The film follows the sisters for five<br />

years and documents their changing priorities over<br />

the period of time; the choices they make and the impact<br />

of the same on their lives.<br />
