Hello API women: 


I am writing to gauge people’s interest level in an informal film viewing / discussion on the peninsula with film-maker Sarita Khurana next weekend.  Sarita is a friend of mine, in town from Brooklyn for CAAMFest, where she will be screening her short film, "What Remains". (http://caamfest.com/2014/films/what-remains/


She would be happy to screen and discuss one of her films with our group. The one she has in mind is a 20 minute clip of her documentary "The Marriage Brokers".  The film is a contemporary look at arranged marriage in India through the stories of three young women in Delhi and Mumbai.


We can meet at my house on Saturday the 22nd or Sunday the 23rd to watch, discuss, socialize and eat – please let me know if you're interested and available, so that we can pin down a day and time ASAP and send the details out. 


Thanks,

Amita


p.s.   Here’s her bio:

Sarita Khurana was born in London in 1970, and immigrated with her Punjabi family to New York City six years later. She has lived and worked in New York since then.  Her work spans the narrative, documentary and experimental genres and is concerned with stories pertaining to the South Asian subject. Themes of migration, community, memory, marginality, territory, and sexuality pervade. (more details on her website, http://saritakhurana.com/)

Hi Amita,

I'm sooo sorry.  I totally missed this email because it was shuffled under my "FORUMS" tab in the new Gmail format.  I now also see that it was cancelled due to Sarita's schedule as well.  So all's well - but I have to figure out how to manage this tab thing.

Hope life is treating you well … I'd be good to just have some API women's tea time for fun.  Ms. asked me to do a house party since the Isabella Allende thing has been postponed.  Wanna help me organize something?  

More later!

Yin
