Prime Documentaries: Homing Pigeons

Homing Pigeons, a documentary on foreigners who have made India their home, this documentary attempts to counter the stereotypical and negative image of India that sections of the western media tend to project. While India has always attracted travellers, explorers, entrepreneurs and conquerors, the film interacts with a few eminent personalities from fields as diverse as art and culture, entrepreneurship, journalism, education, film-making and fashion designing, who have made India their home. Their connection to India is deeply personal and India's myriad cultures and spaces are able to sustain their varied interests. Apart from professionals who have opted to live in India, there are also many who came to India through marriage but opted to stay back even after their spouses passed on, as they feel India is now their home.
