December 19: Mumbai: Twelve Films on Water
Ek Dozen Paani (2008)
Twelve Films on Water
Aagaz, Aakansha, CAMP, and Nikhil Anand
In Mumbai, we witness the passage of water from rain to sea, via lakes, watersheds, pipes,pumps,
More than many of us, residents in the bastis of Jogeshwari spend time arranging this substance, its lakes and sources. As part of an investigation with the social life of water in these areas, Ek Dozen Paani is a collaborative project between the youth of two community organisations, Aakansha Sewa Sangh and Aagaz, Arts Collective CAMP. and anthropologist Nikhil Anand.
These twelve films speak of water’s time and place, of leaky systems and subterranean flows, of struggle and/over imagination.
A discussion with the filmmaker and collaborations will follow the screening.
