SANATKADA FILM STUDIO
Sanatkada Film Studio-
The Sanatakda Film Studio is a unique initiative to teach Muslim women and girls in Lucknow the art of 
photography and filmmaking, building their technical skills and establishing their identity as independent women working in the media.
The media world has traditionally been male dominated and one in which it can be difficult for women to establish themselves. The Sanatkada Film Studio aims to create a space for women in the media and support women in standing on equal footing with men in this field.
With a strong feminist perspective, the Sanatkada Film studio develops documentaries on women’s issues and other important social issues, as well as short video profiles of women in the city.
