Bay Area Spinning Wheel Festival

I attended the Bay Area Spinning Wheel Festival today. Like the previous one it was an amazing experience as the festival showcased some of the best movies related to sikh issues. I would like to showcase two of them here.

First one: Amu
This film starring Konkona Sensharma and Ankur Khanna (from Yun Hota to Kya Hota) raises a lot of questions which are still unanswered after the 1984 massacre. A must watch, very well directed and truly amazing.

Second one: The Gold Bracelet
Written, Directed and Produced by Kavi Raz is another very well made movie on how the lives of thousands of sikhs changed in the USA post 9/11. I later had a chance to meet Kavi Razji and it was a pleasure talking to him.
