Our Story Our Voice (2007)
beautifully put together
The film captures the conscience of one's inner state, getting closer to the truth that lies within, the truth most are afraid to express
a tapestry of many intricate layers. OSOV demands one to question one self, in the pursuit of getting to one's own understanding and not that of others. The path is an individual one and one that can only be walked alone. This is highlighted through the film as it is only the individual perspective and point of view we are exposed to and not any king of institution, which proves the power of one voice against many. The film is a must see by all especially here in the West where things are shifting rapidly. A must see for anyone seeking what lies beneath the gold we are shown. Well worth seeing.
The Idea (2006)
speaks of the self first
This film speaks a universal language; one can relate it to the self, community, society or the wider world. It has a way of not only opening up several questions but also setting one in pursuit of discovering and asking the right questions in order to get to that point of self conviction / ownership. The portrayal of the stereotypes within the film addresses the archetypes around us which must be recognised as being the repeating cycle of destruction, the opposing force of innovation, creativity and growth. The factors which disturb the natural flow of things must be made apparent and tackled. The Idea, is definitely a film to be experienced and not just viewed as it taps into one's internal voice / conscience through the looking, it makes one feel as opposed to just watch.
