Revisiting Jon Jost – Six Decades of Personal Filmmaking & Independent Practices

Roopkala Kendro had the honour of hosting an enriching session with legendary independent filmmaker Jon Jost. The event featured special screenings of Over Here and Mountains as Mountains, followed by an insightful conversation and interactive Q&A with the master himself.

It was an inspiring evening of cinema, ideas, and independent spirit — a true learning experience for students, faculty, and film enthusiasts.

Grateful for the opportunity to engage with a pioneer of personal filmmaking. 🎬✨
