Payal Kapadia Teases Mumbai-Set Film Trilogy Following Global Success of ‘All We Imagine as Light’
variety.comNaman Ramachandran Indian director Payal Kapadia is developing two additional features set in Mumbai, potentially forming a trilogy with her acclaimed fiction feature debut “All We Imagine as Light.” Kapadia, who just attended the Golden Globes where “All We Imagine as Light” was nominated for best non-English language film and director, revealed she has begun writing her next project, a trilogy concept that is still in early stages. “I started writing my next movie and it’s also going to be a film in Bombay.
