SUMAN MUKHOPADHYAY @ MACQUARIE UNIVERSITY

The prominent Bengali theatre & film director, Suman Mukhopadhyay, will be at Macquarie University on Saturday 25th November to present a workshop and show his latest film, Asamapta (Incomplete). His Theatre Productions range from European drama to adaptations of Bengali masterpieces. He was a British Academy Fellow and was invited to the Barbican Centre, London, with the play Man of the Heart. His first feature film Herbert (2005) won the National Award for Best Regional Film.  Chaturanga (2008) was screened in 36 national and international festivals. The film received Gran Prix Award at Bridgefest, Sarajevo; the Best Director Award at Philadelphia Independent Film Festival and the Golden Palm at Mexico International film Festival. He was a delegate to Cannes from the National Film Development Corporation of India.

Asamapta (Incomplete) is a funny, moving narrative that turns the romance genre on its head. Set in a lush mountain landscape, the film presents an incisive portrait of marriage, lost love, longing and unfinished relationships.
