Dear Chintan,

Writing to you for some help. Please help me in circulating this appeal for
funds for Ekta Mittal (of Mara) and her colleague Yashu to complete their
film “Behind the Tin Sheets”.

Gratitude,

Zainab

Dear all,



Ekta and Yashu are trying to complete their film "Behind the Tin Sheets".
The film documents the lives of the workers who are involved in building the
Bangalore Metro Rail. The film narrates the transformations that the city
has undergone through the lives of the workers and the process of
construction of the metro rail system. A sneak preview of the movie is
available on http://www.tinsheets.in/



Currently, Ekta and Yashu need Rs. 1,00,000 (one lakh) to finish the
post-production work including sound, editing, etc. They have run out of the
fellowship amount they had received for making the film. You can help them
finish this movie by directly contributing money -

On my part, in an effort to help them raise money for their film, I would
like to sell some of the following books and things:



   1. Helen Todd's "Women at the Center" - Grameen Bank Borrowers after one
   decade - Rs. 200
   2. Joseph Heller's "Catch 22" - Rs. 100
   3. The Granta Book of Travel with essays by Marquez, Rushdie, Theroux,
   etc - Rs. 200
   4. R M Lala's "Beyond the Last Blue Mountain" - Rs. 150
   5. Bimal Jalan's "India's Politics - a View from the Back Bench" - Rs.
   250
   6. Sean Covey's "Seven Habits of Highly Effective Teens" - Rs. 150
   7. Frank Herbert's "Dune Messaiah" - Rs. 150
   8. Frank Herbert's "Children of the Dune" - Rs. 150
   9. Stephen Covey's "Seven Habits of Highly Effective People" - Rs. 150
   10. Vikram Kapadia's "Black with Equal" - Rs. 65
   11. Jeffrey Archer's "To Cut a Long Story Short" - Rs. 100
   12. O'Reilly's "Managing IMAP" - Rs. 100
