SYNOPSIS
le pocha scans the lastthirty years of bengali music. the corners and the nooks where some musicians swam against the tide. always looking for something new. something that would break new grounds.
the film features mohiner ghoraguli. shilajit, fossils, chandrabindoo and chiradip. rangan chakraborty holds the string together with a calm overview of the origins of alternative music in bengal. with homages to gautam chatterjee and suman chatterjee, le pocha captures the essence of genre bending music. the spirit of argument, inspiration and a conscious need to avoid commercial pressure.
playing with humour, candour and a sense of style, le pocha is a crowd pleaser. combining interviews with music videos, shot in stunning black and white, le pocha veers into a space that is edgy but engaging.
