Kolkata: The pandemic has impacted the way we work, interact and learn with social distancing forcing a more virtual existence, both professionally and personally. But among the most affected are the children: their education and leisure activities have been disrupted. To highlight their plight, SPCkraft, an interdisciplinary art collective, led by artist Sujoy Prosad Chatterjee will webcast the premiere show of the documentary film, “From The Playground To Computer”, on July 15, on SPCkraft’s Facebook Page.
The documentary aims to showcase the turmoil of children through contributions
from vocalists Lopamudra Mitra and Neepabithi Ghosh Dasgupta, Animesh Debroy (state president,
NIFAA), Sumanta Sarkar (chief
functionary & founder, Urotaar), Rekha Krishnan (head, Vasant Valley School, Delhi), Brinda Sen (ex associate professor,
Victoria Institution) and others.
“The pandemic has paralysed the
education system but it has also made us look within. The documentation aims to
look inwards,” said Sujoy Prosad
Chatterjee.
Participating members of SPCkraft in
the virtual presentation are Parbati
Bhattacharya, who has directed this documentary, Pritha Biswas Saha, Sayani Roy, Sanchita
Tapadar, Sampa Das, Protyusha Dey and Shweta Dey. The script has
been written by the members while the poetry of Atanu Burman and Monoreena
Majumder will be featured.
