"The Chess Players" (Shatranj Ke Khilari) is a 1977 Indian film directed by Satyajit Ray. It is based on a short story by Munshi Premchand, set during the British colonial era in India. The plot revolves around two wealthy and aristocratic friends, Mirza Sajjad Ali and Mir Roshan Ali, who are obsessed with playing chess. They spend most of their time engrossed in the game, neglecting their responsibilities and oblivious to the political turmoil brewing around them. Meanwhile, the British East India Company, led by General James Outram, is planning to annex the kingdom of Awadh, ruled by Nawab Wajid Ali Shah. The British perceive the Nawab as a weak and ineffective ruler, making him an easy target for their expansionist ambitions. As the British forces advance towards Awadh, the Nawab remains indifferent, preoccupied with his lavish lifestyle, poetry, and music. He fails to grasp the gravity of the situation, much to the dismay of his loyal subjects. Amidst the political upheaval, Mirza and Mir Roshan continue to indulge in their obsession with chess, oblivious to the chaos unfolding around them. However, their decadent lifestyle and indifference to the plight of their countrymen eventually catch up with them. The film serves as a critique of the decadence and complacency of the Indian aristocracy during the colonial era, juxtaposed with the ruthless ambition and exploitation of the British Empire. It also explores themes of power, privilege, and the consequences of apathy in the face of oppression. In the end, "The Chess Players" serves as a poignant reminder of the complexities of history and the importance of remaining vigilant and engaged in the face of political turmoil and injustice.—SunMaximusOne

"Zift" is a genre mixture of neo-noir and sots-art. The story unfolds in one night. Moth is freed on parole after spending time in prison on wrongful conviction of murder. Jailed shortly before the Bulgarian communist coup of 1944, he now finds himself in a new and alien world - the totalitarian Sofia of the 60s. All hell breaks loose as soon as Moth walks out of jail. He tricks the bloodhounds of the communist state. He spends his first night of freedom in a breathtaking chase with time, trying to avoid fate, as he gets closer and closer to his ultimate demise. His frantic flight draws the map of a diabolical totalitarian city -- decaying neighborhoods and gloomy streets, the bathhouse, the city canal, the hospital, the cathedral, the pompous works of communist architecture centered around the Mausoleum, smoky joints, bars, and finally -- the graveyard. In the pursuit of truth, Moth runs into a bizarre parade of characters - agents, medics, barflies, outcasts, gravediggers and other species of the asphalt jungle. The action thickens through avalanching variety of twists and turns, sudden revelations, flashbacks, lies laid bare, hallucinations, and sensual encounters with the former love. Finally, the story ends inside the gravediggers' trailer where all secrets are revealed.—vladislav todorov

The narrative revolves around police officer Amadeus Warnebring, tone-deaf scion of a distinguished musical family, and his attempts to track down a group of six guerilla percussionists whose anarchic public performances are terrorizing the city. The drumming set pieces correspond to an avant-garde score with four hilariously titled movements. Where the short involved the six drummers imaginatively using standard apartment furnishings as their instruments, the feature unleashes them on an unspecified city's civic and cultural institutions. Including an amusing backstory for each of the soberly dressed drummers as well as their nemesis, music-hating investigator Warnebring, the film creates a treat for the eyes and ears from the dull, repetitive sounds of everyday life.—Palm Springs Internation Film Festival

One out of every six human beings lives in a very hidden world--the world of slums. Filmed on five continents, 'The Fourth World' takes viewers deep inside this hidden world, a world the United Nations says could triple in the next 30 years. Getting past the statistics is tough. 'One Billion' is a figure we cannot wrap our minds around. This compelling film introduces viewers to the individuals who make up this statistic. It soon becomes apparent that these people are no different than anyone else. In fact, it could be argued that anyone who can survive slum life could make it anywhere. 'The Fourth World' may just change your perspective on slum life, and the chronically poor of the Developing World. The Fourth World: Hear Their Stories.—Anonymous

Richard is dead and Henry Bolingbroke is now King Henry IV. The king is not enjoying his reign. He feels guilty about the removal of Richard and it troubles his conscience. He'd like to go to the Holy Land on crusade to pay penance but there are troubles much nearer to home that need his attention. Rebellion is brewing His reign is threatened by growing opposition from some of the very nobles who helped him to the throne - especially the Percy Family. Wales and Scotland are threatening rebellion as King Richard's nominated heir, Edmund Mortimer looms large on the horizon. King Henry's suspicious, rude and perhaps arrogant treatment of Henry Percy (the Earl of Northumberland's son who is known as 'Hotspur' because of his courage and impetuous nature) only makes matters worse. Prince Hal plays the fool King Henry's own heir - his son, Prince Henry (also known as Harry and Hal) - is living a dissolute life, frequenting the taverns of Eastcheap in the company of Sir John Falstaff and other disreputable characters. Hal likes Falstaff but also enjoys insulting and tricking him. He goes so far as to stage a robbery of Falstaff and his fellows just for the sport of listening to Falstaff recount the exaggerated story afterwards. Hal knows he's not being particularly 'princely' but he intends to improve his behaviour when the right moment comes. Open rebellion Opposition to the king becomes open rebellion, led by Hotspur (Henry Percy) who now supports the claim to the throne of Edmund Mortimer (his brother-in-law). Father and son are reunited The rebellion brings Hal back to his father's side - the moment for behaving more like a prince has come. Falstaff musters a ragged troop of soldiers. Will the king's army defeat the rebels at the battle of Shrewsbury? And will Falstaff live to die another day?—RSC
