Vinod Kapri's documentary chosen for Indian Film Festival Stuttgart
Mumbai, June 9
"Can't Take This Shit Any More", a documentary by Vinod Kapri, will be screened at the 12th Indian Film Festival Stuttgart.
The
film gala, where the documentary will be aiming to win awards in two
important categories -- Best Documentary Film and Audience Award -- will
be held between July 15-19 in Stuttgart, Germany.
"Can't Take
This Shit Anymore" deals with the serious issue of deprived women in
society, who have to defecate openly in the fields due to lack of
toilets at home. The plot of the film revolves around six women in
Kushinagar district of Uttar Pradesh who left their husbands' homes due
to lack of toilets.
Kapri said: "It is something not very unusual
and uncommon in India so it might not sound very tragic to many. But on
seeing the documentary, every person watching it got upset and shocked
since one could never imagine what women actually go through because of
this."
Talking about getting the opportunity to showcase his
documentary on an international platform, the journalist-turned-director
said: "Travelling to international film festivals make us read a
variety of reactions of people from different cultures and language
background. It helps us to understand the kind of flavour, colour,
acting, characters that they like the most."
Meanwhile, Kapri is
awaiting the release of his feature film "Miss Tanakpur Haazir Ho", the
trailer of which has earned praise from industry members like Amitabh
Bachchan and Rajkumar Hirani, as well as viewers.
