What kind of video geek doesn't like online film festivals? Those with bad internet connection that's who!
Oh well. Free wifi is free wifi. So it took a while to get me my Indian music fix from this video featured in Culture Unplugged:
Baul Without Boundaries : Director: Sutapa Deb | Genre: Documentary | Produced In: 2009
Synopsis: Baul is one of the few widely known and appreciated types of folk music in Bengal. Baul is not only a kind of music, it is basically a Bengali religious sect. The members of the sect are themselves called Bauls, and the songs they sing are named for them, Baul-gAn (Baul songs). The filmmaker travels to various parts of Bengal searching if the golden days of Baul singers are over.
