It's national.
It's about films.
It does development work.
And it's a corporation.
After liberalisation of the Indian economy, it took NFDC over a decade to realise its role in the cinemas of India. Then, it took almost another decade to make a place for itself in the noisy world of Indian cinema, where even now, after over a century of existence, it looks like it is a place where a lot of new things are only about to start happening. In different parts of the country. In different languages and dialects. In the minds and dreams of a new generation waiting to make their stories into movies for the next generation of viewers around the world.
