"Backrooms" Succeeds
We got a movie that takes the old school approach of trying to creep you out with chilling atmosphere more than anything else.
Ganesh, Boy Wonder
GANESH, BOY WONDER captures the remarkable story of Krishna and Jayamma, a working
class Indian couple who prayed to the god Ganesh to bless them with a boy, never dreaming
that their son would actually look like his namesake, the elephant-headed deity. Years after
giving up all hope of finding medical help, an accidental meeting with a reporter’s brother leads
to a national television story on Ganesh’s facial deformity. The resulting media sensation draws
the interest of India’s rich and powerful, and a Canadian plastic surgeon, Dr. Sanjeev Kaila, who
changes their lives forever. Acclaimed feature filmmaker Srinivas Krishna (Masala, Lulu) makes
his documentary debut with this powerful and moving story about love, faith and hope.
