Contents:

Delhi, The capital city of the country. The experience of a gendered urban landscape- where the gaze, the voice and the body are at all times under surveillance. What if this multiple surveillance was to be turned upon itself to observe what is contained in the everyday. The film explores whether there is a sense of belonging, of ownership of the city. Can a woman in the city, as she continuously negotiates the polarities of anxiety and comfort, be free. Do women really belong and have ownership over their city space? Screened at festivals across Yamagata, Thrissur, Chennai, Gorakhpur, Delhi and Hyderabad, among others
