Matiur and His Bicycle

In the national science film festival there was one film "Beyond Bicyle" produced by Matiur Rahman, Television Programme Company, New Delhi. It is about innovations on bicycle made by many common man from around the country. He travelled to many parts of the country including south india and north-east and presented the innovations. Matiur is a dedicated science communicator, who keeps on making films on innovations without bothering about funding from outside agencies. He is very passionate about innovations and innovators. He never tells stories as an external commentator but he becomes a part of the show and the subject. An element of activism is obvious in his films.

After seeing the film i also felt the need to show case the innovations made by unnoticed people in the country.

We have not received any films from C-DIT. It came to notice that C-DIT is not produced a single science film in the last 5-6 years (correct me if i am wrong) and C-DIT is now specialising in reality shows on development issues. Is it possible for C-DIT to start a reality show on innovations (also explaining its science)...!!
