This Wednesday (3/27/24) at 5pm EST!

History reveals fascinating turning points: a compelling letter from Indian scientist Satyendra Nath Bose to Einstein addressed as “Dear Master” sparked a breakthrough that forever altered our understanding of light and matter…. and the universe.

Join the filmmaker Subha Das Mollick for a screening of Dear Master, a film exploring this pivotal moment in science. Ohio State University is proud to host the first international screening of the film followed by a Q&A with the filmmaker and Bose and Einstein’s descendants. Join this rare and special event on Zoom (sign up in advance here).

“City Symphonies” in Kolkata

Kolkata friends, I hope you’ll consider stopping by The British Council‘s Kolkata office this Friday 9/15 at 6pm for a screening and discussion of the great documentary filmmaker and professor Subha Das Mollick‘s beautiful documentary “City Symphonies” @ 16 Camac Street.

Subha’s Back!

So glad to be welcoming Subha Das Mollick (again!) to her 2nd documentary talk to the Independent Film Circle, this time on the topic of Satyajit Ray’s documentaries. Her first session a few weeks ago was absolutely amazing.

Message me privately if you would like to join this free event, we’d love to have you.

A Session With Subha Das Mollick

Last year during the lockdown a few friends approached me about joining them in founding an online group devoted primarily to Indian independent cinema outside of Bollywood, and the Independent Film Circle was born. We quickly amassed members in the US, India and Bangladesh and had an incredible year, starting with a 12-week Film Appreciation course led by film director Debashish Sen Sharma. 

I’m thrilled to share that a week from today we’ll host a talk by our newest member, the acclaimed documentary filmmaker and educator Subha Das Mollick. 

One of her docs, Crosswinds Over Ichhamati, about the impact that the Partition of 1947 had on rural border communities in what are now the nation of Bangladesh (formerly East Pakistan) and the Indian state of West Bengal, is available for free on youtube and quite engrossing.
