Genre 
Maroon is about Saurabh Sharma (Kaul), a professor in Dehradun University, who stays with his wife, Roshni, a school teacher. The story starts off on the day his wife doesn’t return from work. Initially, Saurabh is in two minds on whether or not to inform the police. But he does ring up the cops after she is not traceable till late night.
The case is handled by Inspector R Negi (Saurabh Sachdeva). During his first visit at Saurabh’s bungalow, the cop finds a few things fishy. Things become more complicated for the professor when his student, Sakshi (Devyani CM) lands at his house and shows over-friendliness. Later on, a voluntary visit by a psychiatrist Dr Abhay Kumar (Suneel Sinha) adds to the mystery. Will Roshni ever be found?

Siddharth
After sending away his 12-year-old son Siddharth for work, Mahendra (a chain-wallah who fixes broken zippers on the streets) is relieved – his financial burdens will be alleviated. But when Siddharth fails to return home, Mahendra learns he may have been taken by child-traffickers. With little resources and no connections, he travels across India in pursuit, with the hope that whatever force arbitrarily took his child away will return him unharmed.
Zero Bridge
In the tradition of hard-hitting neo-realist filmmaking comes ZERO BRIDGE, the debut feature of Tariq Tapa, a US-born filmmaker of Kashmiri/Jewish-American descent. Having spent his childhood summers in India-controlled Kashmir with his father’s family, he was committed to making a film of quotidian life, far from Bollywood fantasies and Western news reports of terrorism: Dilawar is a teenage pickpocket whose escape plans are complicated when he develops an uneasy alliance with a woman (herself fleeing an arranged marriage) whose passport he has stolen. ZERO BRIDGE is a story of two young people’s struggle to retain their humanity, despite poverty, the traditional culture into which they’ve been born, and the fatalism, sexism and casual cruelty of their families.
