The Margins of Mumbai: Anuparna Roy's Second Act Anuparna Roy, the Indian filmmaker who won hearts and minds at Venice last year with her debut "Songs of Forgotten Trees," has been quietly working on her sophomore effort, "Lovers in the Blue Night.
" Set against the gritty backdrop of Mumbai's margins, this film promises to tackle themes of love, survival, and longing through the lens of four migrant lives.
At first glance, Roy's decision to explore these subjects might seem like a natural progression from her debut.
