About #GullyBoy I'm gonna say something. There are yearly 400 movies at the Berlinale. I choose every edition to see 30-35. I chose Gully Boy because it was from India ???????? and they are making great movies in the last years. I had no clue what the movie was about. What a present ❤— Carlos Grau (@cineypoesia) February 10, 2019
