вЂњWe pushed ourselves to question everything, including our own perceptions,вЂќ said Rrivu Laha. She, along with Rrivu Laha, a founding directors of AVFI and Gitanjali J B, co-founder and Dean of HIAL, designed and delivered the workshop. We believed in the authenticity of narratives that would spring from an authentic interaction between the self and the surrounding,вЂќ Ms. We encouraged the participants to look around in response to inner curiosities and concerns. вЂњLike all AVFI workshops, this one too was designed in the exploration of and story. The 45-day film-making workshop was anchored in an environmental philosophy where the self is deeply connected with nature, not disassociated with it, said Richa Hushing, a course director. An important outcome of the AVFI-HIAL collaboration was the decision to establish chapters in both institutions to foster bi-annual student exchange programmes.

The experiential workshop was a collaboration between the AVFI and the Himalayan Institute of Alternatives, Ladakh (HIAL). If that was not diverse enough, the participants also included six Ladakhis, two aspirants from Auroville and one from Italy. Hosted recently by the Auroville Film Institute (AVFI), the workshop at Phyang was capped by the screening of 15 short films made by 27 participants from 11 States - Assam, Andhra Pradesh, Bihar, Gujarat, Himachal Pradesh, Karnataka, Maharashtra, New Delhi, Rajasthan, Tamil Nadu and Uttarakhand. From camps of close-knit indigenous communities to emerald lakes and moonscapes of the Lamayuru, the ruggedly charming Leh-Ladakh region served as an ideal locale for a documentary film-making workshop anchored in principles of deep ecology.
