We love our films and can't stop talking about them, but what do our films have to say about us? What image of ours shows up, when our cinema holds a mirror to us?

Episode 3: 'Gamak Ghar' and Tracing Identity through Lost Roots
<p>The ancestral home is a marker of the continuum of one's lineage and ethnic identity, and a witness to countless stories.
