A screening of Shyam Benegal’s Well Done Abba witnessed the relaunch of an Indian cinema club. Set in rural India, the film revolves around bureaucratic corruption and how a group of villagers led by a young, idealistic girl manages to fight it. Well Done Abba stars Sammir Dattani, Minissha Lamba and Boman Irani, among others. The screening was followed by a discussion by Nadia Gradini, an Egyptian expert on Indian movies. The Maulana Azad Centre for Indian Culture (MACIC), which has been screening Indian films in Egypt twice a week, was instrumental in the re-launch.
