| Programming Highlights: Rediscovering the inspirations behind a two-time Giller Award winner’s most celebrated works |
| Posted
on Saturday, February 25, 2006 - 12:00 AM |
While documentary filmmaker Robin Benger was watching the 2003 Giller Prize broadcast of M.G. Vassanji winning his second award, this time for The In-Between World of Vikram Lall, he was intrigued by three things: how unassuming the writer seemed to be; the fact that Vassanji, like Benger, was from Africa, and wrote about it; and that Vassanji was the Canadian contribution to the constellation of star writers of Asian background in international literature. Three years and three continents later, comes The In-Between World of M.G. Vassanji, an one-hour documentary, written and directed by Benger, that takes a look at the places, people and experiences that have lead to the success of this little-known author. Produced by Cogent/Benger Productions in association with Bravo!, the documentary has its world television premiere on Bravo! March 9 at 8pm ET / 5pm PT.
