Documentary

"Can we continue playing yoyo?" It was a million-dollar question for Dae-yeol, Dong-hun, Hyun-woong, Dong-keon, and Jong-ki, all of whom had been yoyoing since childhood. In summer 2011, the five boys decided to go for the stages they had been dreaming of—it was going to be the last time before they say goodbye to their yoyo. Four of them, Dae-yeol, Dong-hun, Hyun-woong, and Dong-keon, went to the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. Jong-ki couldn’t afford the travel and took his shot at a TV talent show competition in Korea. The five tasted dreamlike moments, which, in turn, made their choices more difficult. Now, the yoyo means something different for each of them. But they have to face daunting reality no matter where they stand.

★ 7.2
56 Up2012Documentary

When a cross-section of seven-year-olds were interviewed for 7 Up in 1964 it was immediately evident that their social backgrounds influenced their attitudes towards life. While the upper class children were confident and self-assured, those from middle and working class backgrounds were resigned to a challenging life of hard work. This premise was put to the test every seven years when the same group were interviewed about the progression of their lives. 49 years in the making, the changes that occurred to the original 14 make for fascinating television and are in many ways the stories of all our lives. From success and disappointment, marriage and childbirth, to poverty and illness, nearly every facet of life has been captured on film. Now, at the age of 56, the group are once more brought together and, with the benefit of hindsight, assess whether their lives have been ruled by circumstance or self-determination.

Finding love is never easy. For Ravi Patel, a first generation Indian-American, the odds are slim. His ideal bride is beautiful, smart, funny, family-oriented, kind and—in keeping with tradition—Indian (though hopefully raised in the US).

And so at 30, Ravi decides to break up with his American girlfriend (the one who by all accounts is perfect for him except for her red hair and American name) and embark on a worldwide search for another Patel longing to be loved. He enlists the help of his matchmaker mother, attends a convention of Patels living in the US and travels to wedding season in India. Witty, honest and heartfelt, this comedy explores the questions with which we all struggle: What is love? What is happiness? And how in the world do we go about finding them?
