We are saddened to announce that due to sudden, last minute health issues our chief guest Mr Sandip Ray was unable to fly to Sydney and will not be joining us in person.

The 2 hour Director's Masterclass on Sunday 11th August has therefore been unfortunately cancelled. However, depending on his health, Mr Ray may still be joining us via Zoom for post-screening discussions and a 30 minute session on Sunday. We wish Mr Ray a safe and speedy recovery and will continue to post updates on Facebook and Instagram as to whether Mr Ray will be attending virtually.

Additional guests Victor Banerjee and Dhritiman Chatterjee will still be joining us virtually for post-screening discussions.

Tickets are selling fast but still available at the link in our bio. Book now!
