INTERVIEW

What does it take to make a good first impression? Clean shoes, combed hair, a shaved face? Only the suit is missing for 23-year-old Ranjid and his job interview at an Indian-British company. His suit is at the dry cleaners – and on today of all days, all the dry cleaners in the city are on strike. The search for a suit leads deep into the streets of Calcutta. Mrinal Sen's political comedy combines documentary-like observations and newsreel footage with slapstick and experimental editing techniques. A fast-paced and radical critique of India's Colonial Hangover.
