Hosmer World Film Series Presents Shyamal Uncle Turns Off the Lights
Sunday, June 23, 1:30 p.m.
An 80-year-old Kolkata retiree is on a mission to get his neighborhood streetlights turned off after sunrise after he notices they stay on all day. Shyamal Uncle finds his sense of propriety upset by this wasteful expense of electricity. But finding someone to take him seriously proves a battle against an indifferent bureaucracy and a complacent status quo (and is just maybe a welcome distraction from his otherwise dull routine).
Sponsored by Friends of the Hosmer Library; Sponsored by the Bryant Neighborhood Association.
