Alternative Cinema: Women's Experimental Cinema from India

Tuesday, February 25, 2025 6:30–7:30 PM

Description

Followed by a virtual Q&A with filmmakers, moderated by curator Devika GirishThe history of Indian experimental cinema is marginal, overshadowed by the dominance of commercial cinema, with even less space for women filmmakers. However, the past few years have seen a new wave of Indian experimental cinema, with women filmmakers emerging as some of its most compelling voices. This program will showcase a curated selection of their works, reflecting a contemporary South Asian feminist perspective while exploring the anti-narrative modes to relay anti-hegemonic positions, materiality of the medium, and the centrality of memory in storytelling.Co-sponsored by the Colgate Arts Council, the Office of Equity and Diversity, Asian Studies, and Core Communities
