Summary
Fried fish, chicken soup & a premier show is a journey with a Manipuri feature film unit through the landscape of picturesque hills and narrative traditions. As technology and army fatigues permeate the terrain the people continuously re-configure the narrative inheritance and the strategies to chronicle the contemporary. Traversing through various sites - the home based filmmaking convention, the courtyards as location for public life, the community imposed censorship and finally the phenomenal love for cinema, the film brings forth the very specific story of Manipur and its public culture in the 21st century.
