Joler Ronger Lekha: A three-month internship became a film at ten festivals

Anoushka Poddar, a Class 12 student, made a four-minute documentary on pollution in the East Kolkata Wetlands.
Joler Ronger Lekha grew out of a three-month internship with the Disappearing Dialogues Collective.
She says it has been shown at more than ten festivals and has won over five international awards.
