The Lunchbox
Q&A with editor John Lyons!
Join us for a free screening of the delightful Hindi film The Lunchbox, followed by a Q&A with the film's editor, John Lyons. A mistaken delivery in Mumbai's famously efficient lunchbox delivery system (Mumbai's Dabbawallahs) connects a young housewife to a stranger in the dusk of his life. They build a fantasy world together through notes in the lunchbox. Gradually, this fantasy threatens to overwhelm their reality. This screening is part of the film series Cinema in Conversation: Food for Thought.
