Mithun MY plays Thomas in "Oli (Light)"

Basis' short film "Oli (Light)" has completed its festival circuit and is now available to view online on our website! Proceeds from rentals/purchases will directly support Basis' program work. We are deeply grateful to Marvin DeVries, Executive Producer, and to all who supported us through the journey of making this film. Based on a true story from Basis' founder Thomas Saverimuthu's childhood, "Oli" invites you to 1970s Bangalore, India, where a boy’s fascination with a bioscope sparks an inventive journey that transforms struggle into wonder. Ever learning himself, Thomas' hope is that Basis' learners - and everyone in Basis' community - will seize their own creative potential to realize their dreams.
