While Project Cinema City is primarily a set of enquiries into the labour, imagination, desire, spaces, locations, iconisation, languages and hidden processes that will act as bridges between cinema and the city, dates.sites will present a timeline of Mumbai in the 20th century, anchored to its most adored public institution: cinema.
