Over the past ten years we have made a number of films for donor agencies, including a series of films for the Department for International Development (DFID). These films have documented a variety of DFID projects in Orissa and Andhra Pradesh, in eastern India. Projects have included the building and maintenance of primary health care centres and schools using low-cost and alternative construction technology. A primary objective of these projects has been to work with local communities, and to lower construction costs through the use of locally available materials and talents and through the institution of financial accounting that is both decentralized and transparent. Modified versions of some of these films have been aired on BBC. We are currently working on a film in Pushkar on Municipal Solid Waste Management and Lake Conservation.The film is supported by IL&FS.
