Question 4

Which films are made on issue of Ageism?

Accepted Answer

Tisca Chopra's directoral debut with a long short film titled Rubaru, takes on harsh realities women face in the film industry all the time - like that of ageism. Tisca says she was inspired by an interview of Meryl Streep where she said that , "after a certain age you are termed dignified and central parts dry up for you. Just when you are at the peak of your performing powers." I thought this is Meryl Streep, and if she is facing this, then what is the hope for the rest of us. And later I read something Oprah Winfrey had said, "You have to take your pain and turn it into power." I kept thinking of both Oprah and Meryl Streep, I was thinking, as roles were becoming scantier, people started coming with character parts, I thought I had to do something about it. Those moments became a central idea for the story I wanted to tell."
