while has been a bigger day as far as Indian cinema's concern as it got three North Zap Oscar nomination list Uh, that was announced yesterday in the evening. Including that list Cesar Saw Ruxandra filmmaker who meet All that Grease, which has been nominated at the Oscars, are He joins us from Yuta, where attending the Sundance Film Festival like it So much for Joining us, John Accent and Congratulations for that. A Big Feet. You've got the Oscar nod for your film, All that grease. If you could take us through, You know what is the movie based on? And you know, when was the movie meet and and also other stock ass and more about the well it took about three years to make. It has no star cast because it's a documentary having not conventional stars. The film, essentially is like is about this one family's relationship with the Black Kite, the chains, and it's like a ecological, emotional and socio political history of Delhi through the relationship of this one family and the black Kite. So it's like this cinematic piece on Delhi's environmental, social political and true, this sort of her emotional relationship between these two brothers and this one family, right? Also, the film took three years in the making. And what a big feet there it has been nominated for an Oscar. How low? What is the length of the film? Um, it's about 92 93 minutes, right? And well at the movie is 92 minutes a long Will it? He has been nominated in the short film category. As far as a documentary categories concern for the Oscars Shaka Take Us are through More about the film are the current difficulties are, you know, a make of faces in order to make a documentary? Because they're not. Many are people are, you know, vying there to back such projects. Well, nobody really deep days into a documentary film thinking with Sisi, right? So the factory, it's our doors and it's going to be a long haul is clear as day from the beginning. Now the thing is that, of course, both dissemination of infrastructure and the funding sources are not not really easily available in the country, but there are different different kinds of grants, and so on circus. All of that is it takes financially and emotionally and Lincoln, all kinds of resources it takes. And thankfully what happened is that I worked with a tremendous team of five or six people throughout this three years who worked with me for the last many years, really. And we work like a kind of community that lift together and filmed and mean different together. So, you know, it's impossible to put a finger on what the exact challenges are. But three Years is a really long Psagot for time to make a film right, and it also heads together sort of packs in the kind of density of lived experience in the film. But after that for the last, the film came out in Sundance last year at very one of the grand jury award. After that, it also went to Can bet one the best documentary award. And since then it's been across a scores of a. It has indeed, yes, it has. And today we're very grateful and relieved and thankful to hear that we were also nominated for the Oscars and so essentially have been on the road for the last 3.5 4 months, and it's a relentless, you know, treadmill of screenings, hotel rooms and so on. So I think for me personally, the most challenging bit has been, you know, making the film as creative pains that are pleasurable and that a rewarding, this other bid, where which also has its joys of showing the film around. But I mean, for me personally, the challenging but always display twitches travel with the film and on the road, which is both fund but also is demanding in terms of your commitments of time and so on. Writer. So a film that set between two brothers who devote their lives to rescuing birds, talking so much for joining us this morning on any TV and all the best for your film of that breathes. We are totally, absolutely rooting for that film at the Oscars so much, Thank you.
