Rima Das’ ‘Village Rockstars 2’ Confronts Adulthood in Busan-Bound Sequel


Indian filmmaker Rima Das returns to the Busan with 'Village Rockstars 2,' the follow-up to her 2017 festival hit.

Das recalls the moment that sparked the sequel: “The final scene of ‘Village Rockstars’ stayed with me – Dhunu in a field at a beautiful sunset, playing the guitar for the first time. She draws on her own experiences to illustrate this shift in perspective: “I remember as a kid, even during floods, we would happily play in the water, building rafts from banana trees, unaware of the gravity of the situation.
