Universiteit Antwerpen Faculteit Politieke en Sociale Wetenschappen Academiejaar 2013-2014 MASTERPROEF FROM WHITE DEVIL TO WHITE EMANCIPATOR Representation of white Western women in Indian cinema Lisa van der Waal Master in de Filmstudies en de Visuele Cultuur Promotor: Prof. Dr. Paolo Favero Medebeoordelaar: Prof. Dr. Kevin Smets Abstract Times are changing in India's film industry. While Bollywood remains the biggest film industry in the world, a new Indian cinema genre is rising nowadays, a cinema that tries to find its position between Bollywood, Western and parallel cinema. One of the striking things of this new Indian film genre, that I call New Indian Cinema, pays attention to the way white Western women are treated in India's contemporary society. New Indian Cinema depicts white Western women as survivors of this tough society they are living in. This representation differs from the way India's popular cinema, Bollywood cinema, has depicted the white Western women until now. From the 1950s onwards, they have been represented as immoral ‘devils’; the opposite of moral Indian women. Although Jane Dark has noticed a development in the representation of white women in Bollywood cinema, it seems that it is New Indian Cinema that contributes to the emancipation of this particular kind of film character in Indian cinema. This thesis is focused on the development of the white Western female character during the last decades. Based on the concepts of whiteness and the male gaze, three New Indian Cinema films have been analysed in order to discover how this new Indian film genre depicts Western women and if this representation contributes to the development of this character.

Crossover Cinema: a Conceptual and Genealogical Overview
University of Wollongong Research Online Faculty of Law, Humanities and the Arts - Papers Faculty of Arts, Social Sciences & Humanities 1-1-2013 Crossover cinema: a conceptual and genealogical overview Sukhmani Khorana University of Wollongong, [email protected] Follow this and additional works at: https://ro.uow.edu.au/lhapapers Part of the Arts and Humanities Commons, and the Law Commons Recommended Citation Khorana, Sukhmani, "Crossover cinema: a conceptual and genealogical overview" (2013). Faculty of Law, Humanities and the Arts - Papers. 1015. https://ro.uow.edu.au/lhapapers/1015 Research Online is the open access institutional repository for the University of Wollongong. For further information contact the UOW Library: [email protected] Crossover cinema: a conceptual and genealogical overview Abstract In this collection, the term crossover cinema is used to encapsulate an emerging form of cinema that crosses cultural borders at the stage of conceptualization and production and hence manifests a hybrid cinematic grammar at the textual level, as well as crossing over in terms of its distribution and reception. It argues for the importance of distinguishing between crossover cinema and transnational cinema. While the latter label has been important in enabling the recognition and consideration of the impact of post–World War II migration and globalization on film practice and scholarship, and while it constituted a significant advance on the term with which is so often conflated, world cinema, this chapter argues for a repositioning of the former term as more definitive of the contemporary cultural epoch. The extension of scope in this manner more accurately reflects the highly contingent ways in which global flows in both production and consumption have shaped cinema—not only in the locations of so-called Third Cinema but also in the West.

Annual Report and Audited Consolidated Financial Statements for the Period from 4 April 2007 to 31 March 2008
Annual Report and Audited Consolidated Financial Statements For the period from 4 April 2007 to 31 March 2008 Managed by Film Investment Managers (Mauritius) Limited Investment Objective The investment objective of The Indian Film Company Limited (the “Company”) and its Subsidiaries; The Indian Film Company (Cyprus) Limited (formerly Braxfield Investment Limited and IFC Distribution Private Limited (collectively the Group) is to achieve total return for Shareholders through investment in a diverse portfolio of Indian films and films primarily targeted at the Indian audience across different genres, languages and budgets. The Group intends to build a film library of Intellectual Property Rights (“IPR”) in various formats, including satellite, home video and mobile technology. The Directors and Film Investment Managers (Mauritius) Limited (the “Investment Manager”) (formerly known as BK Enterprises Limited) believe that the Group is well placed to take advantage of film investment opportunities and to capitalise on the growth that the Indian film industry is experiencing. Operational Strategy The Investment Manager, on behalf of the Group, captures opportunities in the entire value chain of film creation by; (i) sourcing and evaluating prospective film projects through a research-led investment process; and (ii) managing and structuring the production and distribution of such film projects. In sourcing prospective film projects the Investment Manager thoroughly evaluates film concepts, scripts, directors and cast in respect of current market data relating to current tastes and trends. The Investment Manager then assesses the feasibility of the project in relation to budget, timescales and the risks and rewards of each opportunity. Once a film project has been approved by the Board, the Group seeks to retain full ownership of all IPR relating to each film project, although in certain situations the Group may invest in a film project where it may not acquire all rights.

Some are celebrated at film festivals but few are shown in mainstream theatres. Onir's entry into Bollywood, in 2005, with My brother Nikhil, heralded a new beginning, being the first mainstream film dealing with queer identity and HIV issues in a sensitive manner. His latest film I Am, a portmanteau film looks at issues around child sexual abuse, Queer Rights, artificial insemination and racial tensions in Kashmir through four interconnected short films. The film rejects the generic conventions and aesthetics of Bombay Cinema instead creating something new. From the very beginning, the film works on a narrative of loss. The first story Afia, shot in Kolkata, looks at and critiques the idea of motherhood. It is a reminder of the discriminatory structure within Indian society and problematises the very categories which society has thrust upon the creation of the 'ideal Indian woman'. Nandita Das plays Afia, a woman who has been rejected by her lover and thinks the only way she can be complete is to embrace motherhood.

Final Brouchre.Cdr
presents The 10th HABITAT FILM FESTIVAL 2015 May 8 - 17 2015 Ten years ago, we began the Habitat Film Festival, to turn the spotlight on the wealth of Pan Indian Cinema, which in addition to being largely overshadowed by Bollywood, had been relegated to an 'also showing 'status at Film Festivals, tripping over themselves to add the 'International' 'Asian' 'European' tag as a feather in their caps. In the last ten years the face of Indian cinema has seen the most dramatic turnaround. A brave new breed of young directors, fresh ideas, skilled professionals re-invented the face of Indian cinema adding their weight to the work of existing stalwarts who had stuck to their art. Today, the presence, appreciation, awards and accolades for Indian films in the international arena is increasingly becoming the norm rather than a novelty. Bollywood, though as popular (if not more than earlier !) is no longer the sole face of Indian cinema. Celebrating ten years of The Habitat Film Festival, we bring you gems from the last year that showcase the variety and passion of our contemporary film makers. In our tribute segment, we honour the inimitable and unmatchable tower of talent Kamaal Hasan with a retrospective of some of his hand picked films. Screenings will be followed by interactions with directors/producers giving cinema lovers an opportunity of a focused interaction and Q & A.
