This year things are different, as festivals are moving online worldwide. It&#8217;s a completely different experience! Festivals are reaching out to a wider audience, but as a filmmaker, I will always miss being present physically in a theatre. I will miss the energy, the reactions, the laughing and crying of the audience during the screenings. But then, we have to accept the reality and wait for times to change,&#8221; she says.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4730\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4730\" style=\"width: 431px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-4730\" src=\"https:\/\/globalindianstories.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/IMG_5886-copy-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"431\" height=\"287\" srcset=\"https:\/\/globalindianstories.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/IMG_5886-copy-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/globalindianstories.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/IMG_5886-copy-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/globalindianstories.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/IMG_5886-copy-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/globalindianstories.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/IMG_5886-copy-630x420.jpg 630w, https:\/\/globalindianstories.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/IMG_5886-copy-640x427.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 431px) 100vw, 431px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4730\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Making of Tin Satyi<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<h4 class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s2\"><span class=\"Apple-converted-space\"><span class=\"s1\">Take-back from the film<br \/>\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/h4>\n<\/div>\n<p>&#8220;I have experienced that after watching my films people have reconsidered and even come out of their homophobia. So, inclusivity and creating a space for different kinds of narratives to emerge are crucial for my film,&#8221; says the young director. For her, even if a single viewer finds resonance with the narratives in the film, or finds their horizons broadened, she will consider her film successful in conveying its message of inclusion and diversity.<\/p>\n<p>For Debalina, the\u00a0stars of this film are the people who have generously shared their lives and experiences with the filmmaker and the audience.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-4728 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/globalindianstories.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/IMG_5478-copy-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"430\" height=\"287\" srcset=\"https:\/\/globalindianstories.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/IMG_5478-copy-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/globalindianstories.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/IMG_5478-copy-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/globalindianstories.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/IMG_5478-copy-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/globalindianstories.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/IMG_5478-copy-630x420.jpg 630w, https:\/\/globalindianstories.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/IMG_5478-copy-537x360.jpg 537w, https:\/\/globalindianstories.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/IMG_5478-copy-640x427.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 430px) 100vw, 430px\" \/>According to Debalina, more filmmakers entering the ambit of making films highlighting LGBTQ issues is a welcome move. This, she feels should&#8217;ve been done years before with\u00a0partial decriminalisation. &#8220;As I take care to show in my films, questions of desire and sexuality are also influenced by class, caste, religion, ethnicity, so on. So we have to be careful in remembering the intersectionality of these desires, and the marginalising that they bring about. Our filmmaking needs to be inclusive in all senses of the term.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\u2018In Fact\u2026\u2019 is a celebration of love and togetherness with a difference; it is a celebration of the struggles to live those differences; it is an inspiration to create spreading webs of liveabilities for non-normative lives and loves. The three snippets depict three different life-stories that talk of their selves, their loves and their dreams of different lives and intimacies. These are ordinary lives lived ordinarily and yet carry within their familiarity a critique of the conventional, the normal.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Are we ready to shed our skins, overthrow our rigidities and open ourselves to a revaluation of the \u2018normal\u2019, or are we going to, once again, label, judge and banish?,&#8221; asks Debalina in this thought-provoking documentary film.\u00a0<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-4455 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/globalindianstories.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/KASHISH-2020-boilerplate-300x111.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"535\" height=\"198\" srcset=\"https:\/\/globalindianstories.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/KASHISH-2020-boilerplate-300x111.jpg 300w, https:\/\/globalindianstories.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/KASHISH-2020-boilerplate-768x285.jpg 768w, https:\/\/globalindianstories.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/KASHISH-2020-boilerplate-640x237.jpg 640w, https:\/\/globalindianstories.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/KASHISH-2020-boilerplate.jpg 795w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 535px) 100vw, 535px\" \/><\/p>\n<div>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><br \/>\nThe KASHISH Mumbai International Queer Film Festival has started its 11th edition.
