[SimplyBhangra.com] Road, Movie – TRAILER

Road, Movie, termed as the Indian Cinema Paradiso, has been officially invited for a world premiere as a special presentation at The Toronto International Film Festival, 2009.

Vishnu (Abhay Deol), a restless young man, itches to escape his father’s faltering hair oil business.

An old truck beckons, which Vishnu sees as his ticket to freedom. He offers to drive the antique Chevy across the desert to the sea, where it has been sold to a local museum. As he sets off across the harsh terrain of desert India, he discovers hes not merely transporting a battered vehicle but an old touring cinema.

Along the way, Vishnu reluctantly picks up a young runaway (Mohammed Faizal Usmani), a wandering old entertainer (Satish Kaushik) and a striking gypsy woman (Tannishtha Chatterjee – Brick Lane). Together they roam the barren land, searching for water and an elusive fair. The journey turns dire when they are waylaid by corrupt cops and a notorious waterlord.

The key to their freedom is the eccentric collection of films and the two forty-year-old film projectors in the back of the truck. As in 1001 Nights, if the films are good, they live and move on. If the films are boring, they face death in the outback.

The journey proves transformative for each of the travelers, but especially for Vishnu who discovers life, love and laughter on the Indian highway.

Produced by the US-based Ross Katz and Susan B. Landau, and presented by The Indian Film Company and Studio 18, the script of the Dev Benegal-directed feature was an official selection at L’Atelier du Cannes in 2006.

Road, Movie (in Hindi) is India’s first breakthrough feature at TIFF’09 – an official selection that will have a world premiere at The Winter Garden Theatre on September 18.

    Fantastic! Im glad there is atleast one indian director with so much potential considering the types of horrible movies bollywood directors make these days.

    Abhay Deol is great and his acting is so simple and makes the character real.

    Overall: Fantastic movie, Awsome acting, and beautiful score!

    This seems a bit pretentious. But I guess will do well in international film festivals. Abhay Deol, is great as a swanky Delhi middleman in Oye Lucky! but he seems a bit miscast in this movie. Maybe the trailer just falls flat.Will definitely see this anyway

    Sure. I mean film …
    Sure. I mean film in India is no longer politcal – not necessarily in content but style. As Godard meant. Since 90s and more so now, making films (in India) is about aiming towards Film festivals and rehashing styles to suit them. Unlike Iranian films which are still political and therefore refreshingly orginal!

    @cinemablitz.. …
    @cinemablitz.. Indian art cinemas has earned the reputation of being caled clasy rather dan a “mish mash combination” . for example satyajit ray’s work. paralel cinemas need a social regional back ground ….and for Indian parallel movies that being delivered by Indian culture mythology society ,not by any “coffee table book”. first getting out of the conservative way of thinking cn make the criticism better and helpful rather dan valuable comments which is beyond understanding also.
