Sangeeta Datta
If there is a single theme that unites South Asian Cinema, it is its emphasis on family structures and relationships. In this unique discussion, Sangeeta Datta discusses how the various facets of family life are treated in specific films and explores what they tell us about South Asian society at large.
This talk is part of the Bagri Foundation’s World Cinema Club which aims to promote a deeper appreciation of cinema at meetings that are engaging and informative.
Sangeeta is a well known writer, director, independent filmmaker and cultural commentator. She is director of Baithak - a non-profit arts company and Stormglass Productions, which is also dedicated to making meaningful cinema and theatre, drawing from narratives, which have an international appeal.
