“If not for you, I have no other true love When we work together the sun sets early Without you I am nothing” Close to the India - Myanmar border is the village of Phek in Nagaland. Around 5000 people live here, almost all of whom cultivate rice for their own consumption. As they work in cooperative groups — preparing the terraced fields, planting saplings, or harvesting the grain and carrying it up impossibly steep slopes — the rice cultivators of Phek sing. The season's change, and so does the music, transforming the mundane into the hypnotic. The love that they sing of is also a metaphor for the need for the other - the friend, the family, the community, to build a polyphony of voices. Stories of love, stories of the field, stories of song, stories in song. ‘Up Down & Sideways’ is a musical portrait of a community of rice cultivators and their memories of love and loss, created from working together on the fields. It is the first feature film from the u-ra-mi-li project, a larger body of work that looks at the connections between music and labor.

Comedian Sue Perkins explores the story of India through the life of its most beguiling and exuberant city - Kolkata. From its grand history as the seat of British Imperial power to its modern reincarnation as a centre of commerce, the past, present and future of India co-exist here like nowhere else. The last rich kids of the Raj, the new property entrepreneurs, the 8,000 rickshaw men and an estimated 250,000 homeless street children all live, work and sleep in the same beautiful, crazy and colourful place. Through encounters with people from every strata of society, from the richest to the poorest, Sue unravels the strands that make this modern-day megacity work. Full of powerful and emotional human stories, this stunning film captures the complexity and vivacity of Kolkata offering a fascinating insight into a place still tied to its dark past but looking forward to a bright future.

The film is a partly fictionalized presentation of the great tragedy occurred in Ksaragod District of Kerala in India, consequent on the aerial spraying of endosulfan, a highly toxic pesticide on cashew plantations owned by the Plantation Corporation or Kerala govt. The spraying affected the people as well as the environment continually for two and a half decades. This produced disastrous effects in the health of the people especially children, being born with birth defects. The land, the water the flora and fauna had turned toxic and continue to affect human health even today, after discontinuing this spraying for the past two decades.The film depicts the aftereffects of the pesticide spraying through the eyes of a photographer. His first visit to the area was in a rainy season during 2001. His photographs revealed to the world, the shocking and pathetic state of numerous victims. Endosulfan induced misery gained worldwide attention through this exposure. The photographer visited the area again in summer 2006. In the meanwhile, many of the young victims he had photographed during his earlier visit were dead. Even now children are being affected with strange and debilitating diseases. In 2011, the Stockholm Summit of UN on Persistent Organic Pollutants recommended a total ban on endosulfan. India was the only country that defended this movement. A year later, in 2012, the photographer returns to Kasaragod. He realizes that apathy and indifference to the plight of these unfortunate victims still continue and the survivors continue to suffer.

This film profiles the oldest auction house in India as it fights for survival in the age of the Internet. It follows the owners, brothers Anwer and Arshad, struggling to save their family business and a piece of India's heritage. Elder brother Anwer recently returned to his homeland after a long career in the UK. He is desperate to revive the fortunes of his family's beloved auction house, which his grandfather purchased from the British in 1940. But in the process he must contend with a chaotic city, an ailing workforce, and his quarrelsome younger brother. Arshad, India's longest-standing auctioneer, has worked at the Russell Exchange since the 1960s and knows the world of antiques inside and out. Although steeped in the city's traditions, he's skeptical about Anwer's plans for reform. He believes that their city is in terminal decline and that the auction house is destined to die along with it. As the brothers come to terms with their futures, and each other, their amusing, argumentative, and ultimately heartfelt relationship raises larger questions about the place of traditional family businesses in the 21st century economy.
