Payal Kapadia's films foreground the personal and the political, notably in "A Night of Knowing Nothing," where love letters interlace personal relationships with social dissent at the FTII.
In her latest work, "All We Imagine as Light," Kapadia explores the lives of three women in a Mumbai hospital, highlighting their shared struggles amidst individual trials, such as isolation and societal barriers.
Kapadia's storytelling presents a lyrical exploration of female solidarity, showing how bonds are formed despite societal constraints, including marital pressures and cultural differences.
Her hybrid filmmaking style combines documentary, narrative, and experimental forms, which engage with themes of love, protest, and the complexities of contemporary Indian life.
