Rainbow Rishta, which streams on Amazon Prime, is an English-language docuseries about queer life and love in India. The series explores the complexities of queer communities’ relationship to the places where they live, their families and wider communities, and of course their queer identities. The docuseries has been nominated for the GLAAD Media Awards, and been widely received with critical appreciation. Jaydeep Sarkar is a queer filmmaker who has worked in cinema, television and documentary filmmaking. At the event, Jaydeep will be in conversation with Sneha Krishnan (School of Geography and the Environment) to discuss not only his journey in making the film but also how non-metropolitan India is often a place for non-normative sexualities that escape dominant narratives about queer life in India.
