MUMBAI: The 41st edition of the Tampere Film Festival in Finland will honour At the Stairs, a documentary by Rajesh S. Jala in its ‘International Competition’ section. Incidentally, this is the only film from India that would be screened in the festival.

At the Stairs is about the lives of three aged widows in Banaras who are waiting to die there and attain Moksha. It weaves a visual narrative which juxtaposes life and death, body and soul, confinement and liberation.

The festival will be held from 9 to 13 March.
