"Songs of the Forgotten Trees", interview with director Anuparna Roy Gianluca De Angelis
During the 82nd edition of Venice International Film Festival we spoke with director Anuparna Roy for the film “Songs of the Forgotten Trees”, presented in Venice 82 in the Orizzonti section. This is the first work of an indian female director that tells, with delicate and sweet sensibility, the story of two housemates in modern Mumbai, struggling daily with a male-centered indian society that is still entangled in attitudes and behaviours that are really difficult to change.
The interview
During our interview with FRED Film Radio, our guest Anuparna Roy expressed her thoughts on how the contemporary indian society needs to change towards a more stable equality, balancing the chaos of the cities and the intimacy of peoples’ desires. In a story that was mainly self-produced, and that expresses a big urgency from a female artist and director that have a powerful voice to listen to.
Plot
Thooya, a migrant and aspiring actress, secretly works as a part time sex worker in Mumbai. When she sublets her sugar daddy’s flat to Swetha, a call-centre employee and a migrant, an unexpected connection begins to form. Their lives, seemingly worlds apart, slowly entangle. Amid the city’s chaos, they share silences, stories, and small acts of care. But as buried desires and past wounds emerge, the fragile bond is tested. What unfolds is not drama, but a quiet blooming of selfhood, survival, and strange and platonic kinship between women navigating a world that rarely sees them.
