SIN CITY by Shrikant Agawane

The Film deals with the cityscape of crime and its representation in cinema. It reverberates with Bombay cinema's sounds of crime, its grandiloquent echo effects, percussion and music. The young men in a working class neighbourhood, their silences, their pleasure, their aspirations, are playfully pitted against this expressive sound track, creating irony and resonance around the sense of crime.

DARK ROOM by Renu Savant

The city as a dark room creates many chemical reactions through its agitation and development of emulsions.

The acting school that renders made easy methods of acting romantic, fighting ferocious and dancing sexy is thronged by pupils of all age groups.

PILA HOUSE, BOMBAY/ MUMBAI by ABEER GUPTA

Pila House (hybridisation of Play house) was marked as the entertainment district by the British Govt in 1857, in an area which was earlier designated as a graveyard. The theatres were surrounded on one side by Kamathipura, the red light area and on the other side by Congress House, the residence of traditional musicians and dancers, including the much romanticised and much abused courtesans (tawaifs), all part of the symbol of urbanisation and urbane entertainment at the beginning of the 20th century. These theatres transformed their fares from variety entertainments to Parsee theatre to silent cinema to talkies. Some of these theatres, a cluster of a dozen, still run at least three shows a day. As an architectural piece of layered history, jostling for popular attention, along with the flicks are structures of religious sites (mazhars and dargahs) in the same compound.
