Celluloid attempt to put life back into Bangalore lakes
To call attention to the deteriorating condition of Bangalore’s lakes, a group of seven photographers have released a short documentary film called Bangalore Lake Diaries, which they hope will generate public momentum to save these water bodies before it is too late.
The right kind of picture may well speak a thousand words and it is this sort of visual impact that is sought by the documentarians. The six-minute short film attempts to show the deplorable condition of 10 neglected lakes such as the Arakere Lake, Kaikondrahalli Lake, Halasuru Lake, Puttenahalli Lake, Dorekere Lake, Varthur Lake, Rajarajeshwari Nagar Lake, Somasandra Palya Lake, Uttarahalli Lake and Agara Lake.
