Assignment Task
Prompt
The dark side of the family evidenced through practices pertaining to gender discrimination, opposition to non-heterosexual kinship, caste- or religion-based resistance to marriage or other forms of violence and abuse – often arise from the nature of social arrangements’. Discuss this statement by examining the storylines of any two Indian films/TV shows and the resolution of violent outbursts/ outbreaks in the cinematic context. In your view, do the film’s finales differ from the path troubles might take in off-screen lives?’
How to go about the movies and the paper?
- Do not take the prompt word for word. You will get the general idea of what you have to do after reading it.
- I want you to discuss no more than two themes from the movies (which can preferably be related to the positionality of the women and at least one reading from the reading list below) to write about the dark side of the family.
- You can put the 2 movies opposite to each other or along with each other. You can select the 2nd movie based on your selected theme(s).
- You can stress more on “examining the storylines of any two Indian films” and “the dark side of the family” than on “violent outbursts/ outbreaks in the cinematic context” and “off-screen lives.” It means, the former can be primary and you can write more words about it, while the latter can be the secondary and you can write comparatively less words about it.
