SFGFF co-presents Up Down and Sideways this November 4th at 3rd i: the 16th San Francisco International South Asian Film Festival, which brings some of the best cinema from India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Canada, Australia, and the USA.
In this film, Hypnotic rhythms and complex polyphonic music reverberate through the hills of Nagaland in this portrait of an indigenous community and their remarkable musical traditions, set in the alluring northeast of India. The villagers of Phek sing Lis - “call and response” style work songs - as they labor over their rice paddies, echoing timeless themes of love and the land.
