	Oscar-winner to shoot Bengali film
		Gallenberger, who won the 2001 Oscar for Best Short Film for I Want To Be, hopes to complete shooting by the end of April.
		Florian and I decided Bengali could be the best language to express the conflict of emotions," Preuss said.
		Gallenberger has hired a Bengali communicator for a crash course in the language for non-Bengali members of his 100-member crew, which include 10 Germans.

		He chose the actors to play the young Ravi and Masha from poor Calcutta children; they are both outstanding in their portrayal of two strong-minded youngsters for whom destiny has tragic things in store.
		Gallenberger then set about finding locations in the city which would reflect the period, both in the ghastly sweatshop conditions of the carpet factory, as well as the more genteel locations needed for the later period when Ravi’s life takes a turn for the better in post-Independence India.
		At times it verges on the melodramatic and one assumes Gallenberger is pitching it as much to an Indian audience, who lap this sort of thing up, as he is to Westerners.

	'Shadows of Time'- German film with Bengali soul, That is precisely what Florian Gallenberger's "Shadows Of ... (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
		That is precisely what Florian Gallenberger's "Shadows Of Time" is - a classic example of a truly global mode of filmmaking.
		The Oscar-winning Gallenberger, who was in Goa last year as a jury member, borrows liberally from Indian cinema conventions - childhood love, forced separation, lifelong pining, narrative contrivances, emotional tugs, the works - but pitches them at a much lower frequency than typical Bollywood movies do and comes up trumps.
		It is difficult, for instance, to miss a pre-Independence era hand-pulled rickshaw with 'Kolkata' written on it - but Gallenberger gives the film enough fluidity and style not to let these minor glitches assume uncontrollable proportions.

		Of course, not all the performers speak their Bengali to perfection - after all, Irrfan and Narayanan aren't native Bengali speakers - but Gallenberger shows the prescience to give them characters that have their roots outside the state.
		But it isn't enough to prevent them from drifting apart, reuniting, drifting apart again, all through the rest of their lives.
		In this discourse on the role time - past, present and future - plays in the life of humans, Gallenberger abjures the sentimentalism that one associates with such sagas and settles for an even tone that adds to the overall emotional impact of the film.

		The panel of European filmmakers — which this year was made up of Catherine Breillat, Susanne Bier, Saverio Constanzo, Erik Van Looy, Florian Gallenberger and Sally Potter — was invited by EFP to consider whether recent world events influence the stories that European filmmakers tell today.

	2004 TIFF Update #6 - Reviews by David Nusair
		The two make a promise early on to reunite once they are adults, a plan that turns out to be fought with complications.
		Director Florian Gallenberger's ease behind the camera is evident right from the film's opening frames, and the first-time filmmaker does a wonderful job of imbuing this tale with a distinct sense of style.
		And though Shadows of Time does go on a little bit longer than necessary - Gallenberger's screenplay occasionally seems to be trying a little too hard to keep Ravi and Masha apart - that's a small complaint for a film that's as effective as this.

		Incidentally, the most-talked about "Indian" film was "Shadows of Time" made in Bengali by a German director Florian Gallenberger.
