Under Ahmedabad Sky

(Sotto Il Cielo Di Ahmedabad) Director: F. Lignola - S. Rebechi, I, 2007, Gujarati / English subtitles, 37 min

Every year millions of little fighting kites fill the sky of Ahmedabad with their colors. Makar Sankranti began as only a Hindu religious festival, but has evolved into an extraordinary competition involving millions of participants. But what happens to the many kites that fall to the ground during the aerial battle? To find the answer, this film looks into the eyes of the street children, the outcasts, who still find the sky today to be inaccessible.
