Peter Sutoris '11 to deliver talk on Indian Cinema

Peter Sutoris '11 began working on the project he will discuss as an honors thesis in the history department, and he conducted unprecedented research in the archives of the Films Division of India, Mumbai, while on Dartmouth College funding. In the past few months, he published a revised version of his thesis (the title is the same title as his talk) with Oxford University Press (New York), Hurst (UK) and Oxford University Press (Delhi). The book has already received extensive positive comment from specialists in film and media studies and in development studies. Since graduating Peter has worked extensively in the development field and he has begun work on a PhD at Cambridge University. 

Visions of Development: The Films of India and the Imagination of Progress will be held in Carson L01 on September 29th at 5:00 PM
