Synopsis: A unique collection – entertaining, stimulating, heart-warming and thought-provoking – that brings together a wide variety of films from all corners of the world In this volume, the author declares that ‘watching world cinema is like going around the globe, visiting places and meeting people’. In fact, it opens windows that reveal new vistas, new lands, new cultures and new lifestyles, without ever having to make a single journey abroad! In World Cinema: A Celebration, we come across an assortment of talents that make us experience the complexities of human behaviour in different parts of Planet Earth. The 100 films from different countries (arranged alphabetically and chosen from 1990 onwards) portray the distinct socio-economic conditions prevailing in a particular nation. Here’s a kaleidoscope that offers vivid, fascinating and ever-changing patterns vis-à-vis the moving and talking images.
