What forms of resistance can cinema offer? What relations exist between documentary film and activism? How does feminist film deal with sexually explicit images? These questions and more are addressed in a podcast series accompanying the exhibition “No Master Territories: Feminist Worldmaking and the Moving Image,” curated by Erika Balsom and Hila Peleg.
How can film serve as a catalyst of social change? Film scholar Lakshmi Padmanabhan speaks with Deepa Dhanraj, focusing on Dhanraj’s participation in the Yugantar Collective and her 1991 film Something Like a War, which examines India’s family planning program and calls for reproductive justice.
