Mira Nair's personal record of street life around the Jama Masjid, or Great Mosque, in the old city of Delhi, India. She discusses her thoughts on confronting people uncertain what to make of her, a woman alone behind a camera, as she captures the flavor of "ordinary" Delhi, where ancient customs and traditional occupations continue to be practiced amid a large and complex city.
