Description: The course will introduce students to the complex history of and theoretical issues related to cinemas in India, outside the cinematic practices known as Bollywood. It will attempt to demonstrate that cinema is symptomatic of the profoundly transnational nature of modernity itself and that it will help us revisit the South Asian cultural politics outside the dichotomies of national/transnational, post-national.
