Anjali Monteiro | KP Jayasankar

This presentation seeks to look critically at documentary practice and the relationships between filmmakers, their narratives, and their subjects. As documentary filmmakers, we often enter worlds that are far removed from ours and engage with diverse subjects and communities, often at the margins. This provides an opportunity to examine the hierarchies between us and our subjects, and to question our social location and privileges. An awareness of the politics of representation thus becomes a part of our practice and could find its way to the filmic narratives that we produce, problematising the safe, normal space that we inhabit, offering us a space for change and transformation.
