The Indo-German film festival at Lavanya Theatre

The Indo-German film was on from the Nov.17 to Nov.23, 2006 in Lavanya Theatre. On 19th Nov.,2006, I had been there and did watch two movies. Both movies were very interesting. Robber Hotenplotz had been a robber and he liked stealing and he liked stealing a coffee-grinder and ultimately he succeeds in doing so, the tricks the boys play to catch him but he somehow escapes by tripping and rolling over but later the robber traps them. The robber, the witch make the boys do their work Frou Schlotterbeck , Wasti and the fairy Amarllis are interesting characters to watch . The special effects did transform all of us into an entire new world of fun and fantasy. The other picture was the Bungle where the children had no playground to play. The only playground that remained was an empty plot of land belonging to a rich sick man. He agrees to give the land for the children to play but his US son did want to sell the land. The ways the boys developed the playground, the way they took care of the old rich sick man had been interesting to see and ultimately in the end the action taken by everyone in protecting the playground had been a sight to see & ultimately the land was not sold but remained as a playground for the children to play. It was really surprising to see that most of the seats in the Lavanya Theatre were occupied mostly by the girls though there were little kids and babies too to watch.
