| Devyani Saltzman's "Shooting Water" : TUESDAY APRIL 18, 2006 |
| |
| “One of the most beautiful and haunting memoirs I've ever read… [Devyani Saltzman’s] writing manages to be both profound and entertaining, vivid to the point of being cinematic… Shooting Water is a love story - the love of a filmmaker for her film; a daughter for her mother - and the triumph of passion over oppression.”--The Montreal Gazette |
|
| |
| “Powerful… [Devyani Saltzman’s] book weaves her personal journey toward healing deep childhood wounds with the story of [Deepa] Mehta's five-year struggle to get Water made.” --The Toronto Star |
|
| |
|
| |
| “Saltzman marvelously dissects the cultural and political complexities of India that shut down the making of the film.”--The Globe and Mail |
|
| |
| “Gripping… it’s impossible not to be drawn into this surprisingly revealing journey.” --Inside Entertainment |
