Avijit Mukul Kishore is a filmmaker and cinematographer who stretches the boundaries of documentary filmmaking, incorporating multidisciplinary elements as he explores the capacity and influence of moving images. In collaboration with Rohan Shivkumar, he has delved into an exploration of Indian modernity that encompasses a look at the country’s changing citizenry and evolving ideas about how architecture defines notions of home, spotlighted in their recent film Nostalgia for the Future. Kishore has directed nearly a dozen films and worked as a cinematographer on more than fifty. He has deep roots in academia, regularly giving lectures, publishing articles, and curating film programmes. His other films alongside Shivkumar are Vertical City (2010), Electric Shadows (2016), Squeeze Lime in Your Eye (2018) and Lovely Villa – Architecture as Autobiography (2019).
