    Abstract: Based on the novel by Prafulla Roy, Charachar (Shelter of the Wings) revolves around the film's protagonist Lakha, who comes from a family of bird catchers. Each day Lakha traps birds and sells them to Shashmal, the local dealer who in turn sells them to wealthy people who live in the city. Unfortunately, before they are sold, many of the birds die. Despite being in desperate need of the money he makes from the birds, Lakha's deep love for them inspires him to let many go free. Frustrated by her husband's lack of ambition and his obsession with the birds, Lakha's wife Sari has an affair with another bird catcher. This beautifully told narrative reveals the connection between humans and the natural world. Awards/Festivals: Nominated Golden Berlin Bear, Berlin International Film Festival 1994; Won Audience Award and Special Jury Award Fribourg International Film Festival 1995; Won Golden Lotus Award, India National Film Awards 1994.

    Abstract: Based on 'The Meek One', a short story by Fyodor Dostoyevsky, a 40-year-old antique shop owner and money lender recounts his first meetings with his 17-year-old wife, when she pawned her items at his shop. As the film progresses, their marriage is revealed to be an unhappy one with his wife growing increasingly distant and contemptuous of him. Their relationship gets more complicated with each quarrel and consequent reconciliation, even driving his wife to point a gun to his head. Sadly, it is ultimately she herself who gets destroyed. A languidly-paced drama that is a departure from the average Indian narrative film, told largely through the internal monologue of the husband.
