Slum Story	Indian: Human/Social Interest	The sight, smell and sound coming out of Asia's biggest slum are in your face. So are the numbers. The 530-acre land produces 200,000 wallets, hand- bags and briefcases-every year, there are 1000 garment-making workshops employing 40,000 people. Dharavi is also nothing if not enterprising; entrepreneurship sprouts on the roadside and developing inside tin sheds that can barely hold three grown-ups. Money is made if there is an opportunity to make it and openings are created and expanded. And each section has a guru, an individual who arrived here with dreams in his eyes and then shaped a world out of those dreams.

Supermen of Malegaon	Indian: The Asian Pitch 2007 winners	Its a fascinating story of a motley crew of Malegaons for whom their filmmaking is a labor of love and not an enterprise in commercial interests. Juxtaposing the frenzied production activities against a stark socio-economic backdrop of Malegaon, the documentary reveals the cathartic and spellbinding importance of the 'magic of movies' on the people. Ironically, all this is not a sustained effort to rise above their exploitative milieu but merely a temporary escape into the fantastical world of films.
