' Ava ' IFFK - 2017 Day # 6

' Ava ' directed by Sadaf Foroughi ( Iran / Canada / Qatar ).

This is a very good movie that shows a change in the relation and approach between a 14 years old teenage girl named Ava and her parents.

The scenes are too perfect at most of the places. Both the parents are working and keep blaming each other for not spending time with the family and their only daughter. The dialogues are very natural and one could definitely relate it with their own house or the next door.

The scenes at Ava's school are bit funny. It gives a clear picture about how students at teenage find school a bit boring and also less interesting.

Ava from the movie "Ava'.

Ava feels music is her love, but her mother like any other mother is looking for a better future for her. Her father is shown quite supportive and understanding. It doesn't end here, she also tries dating Nima just for the sake of a bet which she keeps with one of her classmate. This date leads to many problems between her and her best friend.

Two major message from the movie are; firstly, the more you squeeze children with rules and regulations, the more they run away from you to break those rules. Secondly, parents should give a space for children to be with their friends and also be a careful watcher at the same time.

Ava realizes that her parents too were rule breakers during their past and so her grudge towards them naturally increases whenever she is asked to do what she doesn't wishes to. Finally, she decides to set herself free.

Why Strikes ? Hartals ? Bandhs ?

Strikes ? Hartals ? Bandhs ?  It takes a few seconds for me, to recollect and understand the difference between strikes, bandhs and hartals. But yes I must say, when you speak about the beauty of Kerala you cannot miss your thoughts on the ' Hartal state'. Most of the time people in India use this as their medium to communicate, or to convey their pain, or even their demands. What makes me wonder is, is this the only way? Shutting down shops, burning of buses,cancelling trains etc, are these the only things that we can do? Cartoon by: R K Laxman When it is ' a government of the people, by the people and for the people ', why the so called people have to suffer so much. Who are the so called people in the above mentioned Indian national  quote? Questions! Questions! Questions! As a citizen of India, I do appreciate freedom but its at times too expensive. If we look in to the impact of these  protest activities, the one who suffers is obviously you ...
