SANATKADA FILM STUDIO
@sanatkadafilmstudio
Sanatkada Film Studio was founded by our team
of three, Aisha Khatoon, Kahkashan Beg, and
Saira Khan. We are from a marginalized community
which had limited resources and poor
access to education. Still, with the help of local
NGO Sadhbavana Trust, we fought restrictive
cultural norms to learn photography, film making,
and video editing as mediums through which we
could explore issues related to gender, identity,
and social justice. Over the past nine years, we
have worked with Sadhbavana Trust, Sanatkada,
and other organizations across Lucknow, UP and
India on a wide range of projects including: developing
short documentaries on a range of issues
such as the RTI Act, the stories of women
community leaders, and Lucknow’s cultural
heritage; covering social sector events and workshops
cultural performances. Now, we are
taking our services to the general public as an
independent enterprise.
