Jama Masjid Street Journal (1979)

Artistic and authentic, this subtle documentary paints a colourful picture of day-to-day life around the Jama Masjid, or Great Mosque, in the old city of Delhi, India. Director Nair discusses her thoughts on confronting people, uncertain what to make of her, a woman alone behind a camera, as she captures the flavor of "ordinary" Delhi, where ancient customs and traditional occupations continue to be practiced in the midst of a large and complex city.
