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.
As far as the installations are concerned, The Calendar Project: Iconography in the 20th Century, Bioscope: A game of Cinema&ndash;City&ndash;Modernity Timeline, and Cinema City Lived: Map of cinema on the body of the city further elaborate on the theme of the event.
