Zindabad! is a documentary by Guillermo Fernandez Florez and Paul-Antoine Lemaille that tries to unravel the dilemma of how the megalopolis aims to become a ‘world-class’ city, and more importantly, how can this be achieved when over half of its population lives in slums. While a lot of footage will be common knowledge to the Mumbaiite, it’s the realisation and the starkness of the filth that surrounds us that will shake and stir the sensibilities.
