<p>Miss Lovely director Ashim Alhuwalia’s new short is a remake of artist Akbar Padamsee’s experimental film that was lost 45 years ago</p>

Stills from Events in a Cloud Chamber
When Akbar's (Padamsee) Syzygy was shown to an audience in 1969, after much reluctance, it was introduced to the audience by the Films Division as a film they may need an asprin to watch,” says filmmaker Ashim Alhuwalia, who we know as the man behind 2014's stellar Miss Lovely. “He was so dejected that he didn't even bother showing his other movie, Events in a Cloud Chamber. When he told me about the two, I knew I needed to do something with this." Padamsee had sent a print of Events in a Cloud Chamber to an art expo in Delhi which eventually lost it. Already embarrassed by it, Padamsee never bothered to retrieve it.
