The last three days were pretty hectic for Rajasree. She would leave her home at nine in the morning after finishing her chores and cooking food for her family. She would ensure that she reached the Kairali-Sree theatre complex well in time to get a seat for the first screening of the day.
The housewife from the outskirts of the city would leave the theatre only after the last show of the night. Women like her made the third edition of the Women’s International Film Festival, which concluded on Monday, a success.
“I watched as many films as possible and it was an enjoyable experience,” she says. “The ₹300 I spent on the delegate pass was more than worth it. I liked most of the foreign films I watched. And I liked the Malayalam film Nishiddho too.”
