As part of the ongoing sessions on youth and issues of gender and sexuality, Samapathik Trust invites you to a screening of Death in Venice at Open Space.
Death in Venice (dir: Luchino Visconti ). Abroad on a rest holiday, composer Gustav Aschenbach is to all the world reserved and civilized.

Director Luchino Visconti transforms Thomas Mann's classic novel into "a masterwork of power and beauty".

RIGHT TO INFORMATION, SATURDAY, APRIL 9th, 4pm onwards
The Right to Information Act empowers citizens to demand accountability from those who have been assigned to govern on behalf of the people. Under the Maharashtra Right to Information Act, 2002, any citizen can demand information from state government departments and public bodies including the Municipal Corporation.

The presentation is an introduction to the central Right to Information Bill pending approval of the Parliament, followed by a screening of a documentary film in Marathi about the use of the MRTI act.
