Imphal, October 21:
Karigi (Why), a short film based on last year's August 16 bomb blast at the Mani Mandir complex of ISKCON here while a Ras Leela performance was underway in connection with the celebration of Janmasthami was premiered at Manipur Press Club today.
The 23-minute long film is directed by Bachaspatimayum Sanju and produced by Ajit Das.
Though the film does not have any narrative, it juxtaposes real footages of the gruesome incident with the interviews of the devotees who witnessed the blast and the comment of Managing Director of Shija Hospital Dr Palin who spoke on the problems faced by his hospital in looking after the injured persons admitted for treatment after the blast.
The film also featured the comments of some people against the alleged failure of the Govt to provide compensation to the injured persons.
