THE POOL, A film by Chris Smith, NR, 95 min, in Hindi with English subtitles
A truly independent gem of a feature. Informed by incisive observations about the class divide but more
interested in the mysteries of the human heart, this gentle variation on neorealism is a delight on every level. The Hollywood Reporter
Winner of the Special Jury Prize at the 2007 Sundance Film Festival, The Pool is the story of Venkatesh, a room boy working at a hotel in Panjim, Goa, who sees from his perch in a mango tree a luxuriant garden and shimmering pool hidden behind a wall. In making whatever efforts he can to better himself, Venkatesh offers his services to the ealthy owner of the home. Not content to simply dream about a different life, Venkatesh is inquisitive about the homes inhabitants-indeed about the world around him-and his curiosity changes the shape of his future.
