Shiraz: a Romance of India GFT
4 – 5 April, 2018
Based on the romance between 17th-century Mughal ruler Shah Jahan and his queen, this epic silent film is the ravishing, romantic tale behind the creation of one of the world’s most iconic structures: the Taj Mahal. The film is the story of humble potter Shiraz, who follows his childhood sweetheart Selima when slave traders sell her to the future emperor. Shot entirely on location in India, it features lavish costumes and gorgeous settings – all the more impressive in this restoration that features a specially commissioned score by the Grammy Award-winning Anoushka Shankar.
