State of Housing
42 Minutes | Multilingual

A film directed by Sanjiv Shah, was commissioned as part of the State of Housing – Aspirations, Imaginaries and Realities in India exhibition held at Gallery MMB/Goethe Institute in Mumbai. The exhibition was curated by Rahul Mehrotra, Ranjit Hoskote and Kaiwan Mehta, produced by Urban Design Research Institute and the Architecture Foundation and supported by the Tata Trusts.

The Film articulates a Pan-Indian reality of the housing crisis in the voices of ordinary people across the country. The intent of the film was to complement the otherwise objective and historic as well as statistical reading of the State of Housing in the exhibition.
