Synopsis:
For over forty years now, Anand Patwardhan has been making and screening documentary films as an extension of his socio-political activism. His films deal with various issues plaguing the social fabric of the country. In what appears to be a rare encounter between two filmmakers, R.V. Ramani, a cinematographer and an auteur in his own right, decides to engage in a 'visual conversation' with Anand Patwardhan, as the latter goes about screening his films across diverse audiences in the country. The film unfolds a range of poignant perspectives around Anand’s screening events and seems to raise primary questions in documentary filmmaking and representational politics.
