5TH INDIAN SCREENWRITERS CONFERENCE - Day 01 Session 02

WRITERS Vs. PRODUCERS: CAN THEY NEVER BE ALLIES?

***
Day: August 1, 2018 (Wednesday)
Venue:
St. Andrew’s Auditorium, Bandra West
Mumbai
***

Focus: By their very definitions, art and commerce seem to be locked in a perpetual conflict. One aims to unearth hidden truths, break new ground, whereas the other seeks to profit by pleasing the audience, by not disturbing status quo. The writer is considered a natural rebel, the producer, an establishmentarian. Ergo, the relationship seems riddled with tensions, anxieties and suspicions. And, yet, neither can survive without the other. So, can we at least understand each other’s point-of-view?
