Overview

“8th Day of the Week” is a documentary that focuses on the full and partially blind theatre actors in Kolkata. 25 years back, Shubhashis Gangopadhyay, an actor-playwright-director went on to form “Blind Opera”, the first blind theatre group in India. The present film has followed those visually challenged actors through different phases of practising theatre. Also, this documentary captures a few scenes of Rabindranath Tagore's play “Raktakarabi” (Red Oleanders), being staged by those visually challenged performers. This is a tribute to an incredible tale of human achievement.
