On Saturday, you get to watch Gone with the Woman, a Norwegian film about first love and who wears the pants in the relationship. The President's Barber, a Korean political satire plays out on Sunday, followed by films in Italian, English and French on successive weekdays. Says Deepa Gahlot, head of Programming, Indian Theatre and Film, NCPA, "Comedy is always popular. The films offer a wonderful opportunity to see how humour works in different cultures." Cinema and the city: The connect continues On: Today, 7 pm onwards Where: Mini Auditorium, Research Unit Building, SNDT University, Juhu Campus. Notice closely. Behind bus stops and under the flyovers is where you will spot illegal shacks of cinema that charge less but entertain hoards. They double up for shelter and linguistic refuge for migrant wage workers. Anna Sound Please, a film directed by Madhavi Tangella, captures this phenomenon and you get to watch it today as part of the inauguration of the certificate course: City Narratives in Literature and Cinema. After introductory sessions and the film screening, there will be a discussion on the topic Cinematic Cities and City Cinema by curator of the Cinema City project Madhusree Dutta, author Rahul Srivastava and art and media critic Sadanand Menon.

But the Talamasca that's going to swoop down on our city tonight is a Paris-based psytrance project and one of the pioneers in the France trance scene. Listen to DJ Lestat (Cedric Dassulle's alter ego, a stage name inspired by a Rice character) in one of his mind-blowing live acts. FOOTBALL AT THE FROG: On Sunday, enjoy the footie finals on the big screen accompanied with brilliant acoustics that Frog is famous for.

Call: 26149546 <img alt="" src="/imagedata/2010/jul/ilham.jpg" border="5" /> What happens if the man we call a lunatic was the sane one, and the rest of us, insane? When we realise that the guy in tattered clothes is dancing in the streets because he hears music we cannot? National swimming champ-turned-theatre actor and director Manav Kaul's Ilham takes you through the life of a middle-aged man who claims to have an Ilham (enlightenment). Sitting on a park bench, he starts talking to an imaginary man. Slowly, he starts talking to imaginary children and though he seems to be going mad, he is also the happiest he has ever been. What world will he choose to inhabit if given a choice?
