Cinema House | Borders | Rapture (Rimdogittanga) by Dominic Sangma

In a village plagued by kidnapping fears, the church announces the arrival of a miraculous Virgin Mary statue along with a grim announcement from the village security head, Nengsal, who warns “ of an approaching apocalyptic darkness which will last for 80 days. Nothing will give light except for the Blessed Candles given by the priest”. Amidst this chaos, we follow Kasan, a 10-year-old boy suffering from night blindness, and his father, Nengsal. Through their perspective, we witness the village’s unprecedented challenges and the unintended consequences they inflict on their lives.

Join us for the screening of this film which highlights the sign of our times. The language of Rapture, directed by Dominic Sangma is Garo and the screening of the film will be followed by a post-screening conversation with the film team.
