Film Screening: Mango Souffl?
A slice of radical Bollywood kitsch, Mango Souffl? offers ripe insight into human sexual identity. Struggling to emerge from a depression, Kamalesh invites several mostly queer friends to his lush country farm, one of whom uncovers an explicit photograph that ends up in the wrong hands. Skeletons come dancing out of the mango groves when Kamalesh's ex-lover arrives unannounced with Kamalesh's sister. Eager to keep their love affair secret, each man struggles to define his masculinity. With traditional Indian mores closing in on this entangled triangle, the delightfully complicated characters grope towards self-worth and honesty. Mahesh Dattani's directorial debut exudes compassion and a healthy defiance of prejudice and social pretence.
