EP 15 - Bollywood • Bombay • Bombings

Object Obscura

In this episode I have a metal film canister - and inside is an acetate film reel of a 1990s Indian film. We’ll go on a roller coaster adventure to learn about the movie inside and all of the drama surrounding it. Thank you to Anthony L’Abbate from the George Eastman Museum, Tejaswini Ganti and Ramesh Talwar from the IPTA.
