Shreelancer, a 98-minute feature film is the contemporary
take on the life of a freelancer in today’s India. Shreelancer follows
Arjun Radhakrishnan (Shree), a Bangalore based mid 20's freelance copywriter
who is battling with nagging self-doubts about his artistic abilities. Shree belongs to a Maharashtrian family from Belgaum. He
does ads for small time ad agencies, but is quite frustrated that the world
doesn't seem to understand or respect freelancers. Unable to concentrate at
home, he visits various cafes to find his peace and works from there. Addicted
to his cellphone and the social media, Shree's worldview is shaped by what he
reads online, not having traveled much in the "real" world. As fate
would have it, Shree gets an invitation to attend an all-expenses paid trip to
a college friend's wedding. And life as he knows it will never be the same again
for Shree. The film highlights the journey of a freelancer, despite having a
flexible schedule, they work on deadlines, love to take up all jobs and seldom
say “No” to any assignment.
Shreelancer had its World Film Festival Premiere at the prestigious New
York Indian Film Festival (NYIFF) in May 2017 where it was nominated in the
best screenplay category. The film will next screen at the Blue Whiskey
International Film Festival on the 8th August 2017 where it has been
selected in the competition category. Apart from this, Sandeep Mohan has
conducted 30 screenings at spaces like Cafes, Pubs,
Office Spaces, Coworker Spaces, Colleges, Homes, Art Galleries, etc. and
convert them into
mini-theatres for the duration of the film. Sandeep conducts this
screening under what he calls the "The Great Indian Travelling
Cinema" experiment.
The film treatment is very
different in terms of film making and the story line. The whole film was shot
in a creative manner and executed as a guerrilla shoot by Sandeep Mohan. Shreelancer is
the third feature film by Sandeep Mohan. His prior movies were Hola Venky
& Love Wrinkle-free.
