DESCRIPTION:\n	Followed by panel discussion with Jessamyn Hatcher\, Frances
 ca Granata and Ashish Pant \n	\n	\n	  Presented in collaboration with the 
 India Center \n	\n\nDir. Rahul Jain. 2017\, 71 mins. Digital projection. I
 n Hindi and English with English subtitles. Marrying stunning visuals with
  social advocacy\, Rahul Jain's debut documentary takes audiences into the
  labyrinthine passages of an enormous textile factory in Gujarat\, India. 
 Jain's camera wanders freely between pulsating machines and bubbling vats 
 of dye to create a moving portrait of the human laborers who toil away the
 re for twelve hours a day creating fabric that will be used to create glam
 orous clothing. This political message is delivered amidst the unsettling 
 beauty of the factory’s mechanical underworld and the colorful\, billowing
  fabrics it produces.&nbsp\; \n\n	About the speakers:&nbsp\; \n\n\n	Jessam
