**Before the film screening: Lecture by Moran Kushnir**, tour guide and cultural consultant for India
Andrew and Daniela travel to Goa, India, to meet their adopted daughter, Sarvari, and fulfill a long-held dream. However, when the 4-year-old refuses to leave the orphanage she calls home, their plans begin to unravel. Amid language barriers, cultural differences, and expectations clashing with reality, the journey turns into an emotional confrontation that confronts them with a world they do not know. From the intersection of cultures, they are compelled to reevaluate the meaning of family, parenthood, belonging, and the way connections, trust, and the sense of home are formed.
**Lecture Summary: Embracing Chaos: Cultural Codes in India and the Western Perspective**
India is often perceived from a Western viewpoint as a place of total chaos. However, beneath the surface lies a very formal society, with a clear social order and defined internal rules. In the lecture, we will unveil the cultural and social codes underpinning the film "Mosquito in the Ear," discuss the power dynamics between India and the West, and examine how they are manifested in the film.
