Film: John & Jane
By Ashim Ahluwalia
A fresh new blend of observational documentary and tropical science-fiction, John & Jane follows the stories of six call centre agents that answer American 1-800 numbers in a Mumbai call center. John & Jane, directed by Ashim Ahluwalia discovers a young generation of urban Indians who are beginning to live between the real and the virtual. However, this futuristic world of American aliases and simulated reality is not science fiction, these are the times in which we live. John & Jane raises disturbing questions about the nature of personal identity and what it means to be Indian in a 21st century globalised world.
