“Jab Hum Chhote The” at DIFF Virtual Viewing Room


Event overview

We are happy to announce that Shuchi Prasad’s CDC Diploma film Jab Hum Chhote The (When I Was Small) is now available to watch at the DIFF Virtual Viewing Room. The film will be available to audiences around the world for free from 17–26 June 2022.

Film synopsis: Young children hear the ancient epic Mahabharata from a storyteller. The myth allows the young minds to meander as they traverse complex terrains of childhood, a memory revisited for the filmmaker. A thorn amongst the flowers, a story within a story, the tale seeps into our dreams, the place where demons go to sleep.

Fourteen CDC student films have been selected by DIFF Virtual Viewing Room as part of its curation. For more information: https://online.diff.co.in/page/studentdocscdc/
