Where Histories Reside

India as Filmed Space

by Priya Jaikumar

Duke University Press

£22.99

In Where Histories Reside Priya Jaikumar examines eight decades of films shot on location in India to show how attending to filmed space reveals alternative timelines and histories of cinema. In this bold “spatial” film historiography, Jaikumar outlines factors that shape India’s filmed space, from state bureaucracies and commercial infrastructures to aesthetic styles and neoliberal policies.
