In the year 1893, a rebellious young farmer rallies his community to oppose the tax imposed by the foreign oppressor. An English captain challenges the protesters with cricket, a game then completely unknown in India. The stake is nothing less than the villagers' lives. A triumph of romance, choreography (in the exhilarating musical numbers), and heart-stopping action, Lagaan displays the genius of the Bollywood style at its very best.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p> <em>[source: <a HREF=\"https:\/\/eastman.org\/event\/film-screenings\/lagaan-once-upon-time-india\">George Eastman Museum<\/a>, 2018-Jan-22]<\/em> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Dryden will screen Lagaan: Once Upon a Time in India (Ashutosh Gowariker, India 2001, 220 min., 35mm, Hindi, Awadhi, Urdu w\/subtitles) as part of the Stories of Indian Cinema series.
