Director Indira Dhar Mukherjee’s short film The Green Window is dedicated to the mothers on this planet. It is the tale of a Christian woman who stays in India at an old-age home. She lives there until her family comes from abroad to take her back home.

The short film was recently screened at the 27th Kolkata International Film Festival.

A press meet for the film was organized that was graced by the director, Bickram Ghosh, Jaya Seal Ghosh, Arghya Kamal Mitra, Priti Agarwal, and others.

“The film is a biopic of Georgita Lorimer. And what she could not achieve in her real-life happened in the film. In real life, her family did not come to take her back. In the film however that wish-fulfillment is shown. The ending of the film is therefore positive” said the director.

The screenplay has been written by Indira Dhar Mukherjee.

The cinematographer of the film is Arnab Riingo Banerjee.

The music has been composed by Bickram Ghosh.”There is languidness to the music before the child appears. But when the child appears, the music becomes alive. Hence, there are two characters to the music. There is an ambiguity to the story and that attracted me”.
