Film Quarterly’s original webinar series showcasing the best in recent film and media publications continued this spring with a conversation between Page Views editor Bruno Guaraná (Boston University) and Kartik Nair (Temple University) about his new book Seeing Things: Spectral Materialities of Bombay Horror (University of California Press, 2024). Taking the materiality of the filmic image as a starting point for investigating gaps in the historical record, Nair brings a welcome spotlight to Indian cinema’s forgotten horror wave of the 1970s and 1980s.
Moderated by FQ editor-in-chief Rebecca Prime. Bruno Guaraná’s interview with Kartik Nair appears in the Spring 2024 issue of Film Quarterly (Volume 77, Number 3). It is available online at www.filmquarterly.org together with a link to the introduction of Seeing Things, courtesy of the University of California Press.
