A still from Paanchika
We might have left the idiom ‘misery loves company’ incomplete. Because if you leave love unattended, it will find companionship and persevere in the face of conflict, grief, and discrimination. This approach to love is the theme of Love Makes the Cut — a collaborative film festival by Museum of Art & Photography (MAP) and Lekh-Haq, supported by British Council’s Our Shared Cultural Heritage programme.
The films curated for the festival are Morome Ringiaai by Chinmoy Barma, Paanchika (Five Pebbles) by Ankit Kothari, and Kinaara by Anureet Watta. With run times ranging from three to 15 minutes, these short films narrate love at different intersections — poverty, caste, gender, and more. Mehreen Yousaf, events coordinator at MAP, says, “The films, although poles apart in their approach to filmmaking, genre and stylistic expressions, represent and imagine manifold expressions of the intricacies, abundance, and connectedness that can be found in the diverse experiences of love.”
