Our apologies for the last minute switch, but the distributor of Do Aur Do Pyaar informed us last minute that they have legal issues with rights.

We’re currently enjoying a wave of attention-grabbing feminist movies, with The Substance, Poor Things and Blink Twice using stylish allegory to tackle difficult topics — sometimes with mixed results. All We Imagine As Light emerges from a very different mindset, reminding us that subtlety and sincerity can be equally effective tools. Set in Mumbai, it offers a clear-eyed view of everyday life as a working-class woman, focusing on two nurses who share an apartment and work at the same hospital.

The second film from Indian director Payal Kapadia (her first was the acclaimed 2021 documentary A Night Of Knowing Nothing), All We Imagine As Light won the Grand Prix at this year’s Cannes Film Festival. This brought a well-deserved boost to a type of indie film that’s often tricky to market: thoughtful, naturalistic and character-focused, with a poetic view of bustling urban life. – Empire Magazine
