A science-fiction fable set in the "miracle city" of Yiwu, in one of the world's largest wholesale markets for small commodities. Time is plastic as we travel into the near future in the company of an unusual pair, a mannequin and a person. They encounter a universe of “Forever” goods - that simultaneously entice and repel in their promises. The film is an invitation to revisit questions around technology, mortality and what it means to be human today.
Filmmaker Iram Ghufran will be present for an introduction and post-screening discussion.

Pad.ma invites you toRivers without Banks at CAMP27th December, 2013 through 27th January, 2014Before the start of a new year; and among big and small resolutions for the future we chose to ask ourselves what is free cinema today, what is its political and perceptual economy, and what could we summon of its powers, before embarking on new journeys of making and thinking. Rivers without Banks is a screening program of films whose durations extend beyond conventional length. But importantly, this is not a collection put together quantitatively, even as we may argue that the epic scales present in the chosen films carry the weight of histories, and put together chronologically show us a century where individual everyday lives face the annals of terrible power; where the human condition battles with nature and technology, with love and loss, with good and evil.
