The City Beautiful (2003)
The City Beautiful (78 min)
Delhi/India, 2003, Director:Rahul Roy
Sunder Nagri is a small working class colony on the margins of India’s capital city, Delhi. Most families residing here come from a community of weavers. The last ten years have seen a gradual disintegration of the handloom tradition of this community under the globalisation regime. The families have to cope with change as well as reinvent themselves to eke out a living. The City Beautiful is the story of two such families struggling to make sense of a world which keeps pushing them to the margins.
