Indispensable for students of film studies, in this book Reena Dube
explores Satyajit Ray's films, and The Chess Players in particular,
in the context of discourses of labour in colonial and postcolonial
conditions. Starting from Daniel Defoe and moving through history,
short story and film to the present, Dube widens her analysis with
comparisons in which Indian films are situated alongside Hollywood
and other films, and interweaves historical and cultural debates
within film theory. Her book treats film as part of the larger
cultural production of India and provides a historical sense of the
cross genre borrowings, traditions and debates that have deeply
influenced Indian cinema and its viewers.
