Ketki Saxena, our first profiled Animation student, has given us Gitanjali, a short animation film on Rabindranath Tagore's poem 'Where the mind is without fear'.

Saxena, whose interests include storyboarding, character design, web site design and 3D modelling, says Tagore's pre-Independence poem is, "one of the most inspiring poems, where he talks of his views of how the new awakened India should be as a free nation. And to think of it today! It's a big question in front of us."

Her film, she says, explores the other side of Tagore's poem, so that one can "make out what are we missing in being a truly free nation."
