Reviews

The bibliographies and filmographies that follow each chapter are among the book's outstanding achievements. (Samhita Sunya, Film Quarterly, Vol. 75 (2), 2021) The potency of this book's contribution comes from the way that it weaves together technological, industrial and philosophical concerns with a keen focus on the specificities of the historical and cultural contexts of film production in India. There is no doubt that readers will benefit from the persistent labours of this self-confessed cinephile and her thick network of connections across the independent filmmaking landscape in India. (Megan Carrigy, sensesofcinema.com, Issue 99, July, 2021)
