Bio: Shilpi Gupta started her filmmaking career with the award-winning short documentary, When the Storm Came, which Shilpi directed, produced, shot and edited while at UC Berkeley’s Graduate School of Journalism. The film profiles a village in Kashmir that allegedly survived a mass rape at the hands of the Indian Security Forces and continues to survive the stigma that haunts it, culminating with a stark reminder that rape has been used as a tool of war across the world throughout time. Her first film, When the Storm Came screened at festivals across the country and won nine awards to date, including the 2004 Sundance Film Festival jury prize for short-filmmaking, a student Oscar from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, and two College Television Awards from the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences.
Shilpi continues to work on numerous projects in various capacities, from editing a feature-length documentary about a boy wonder who started a resistance magazine while living in a Czech ghetto during World War II, to co-producing a dramatic feature about the aftermath of September 11 on the Afghan community in Queens, to shooting in the conflict territory across the Burma-Thai border.
