About Thursday Special

Billed as a tender exploration of love, companionship, and change, Thursday Special will be released on January 29 on the Humans of Cinema channel on YouTube after having already built a strong reputation on the international festival circuit. Sircar and Motwane’s decision to come on board as presenters, the filmmakers said, is rooted in a shared belief that short films remain a critical entry point — and sometimes an end goal — for contemporary filmmakers navigating an increasingly expensive industry.
