What is Brownscape Productions?

Founded in 2004 by Deepti Paul and Sudha Narasimhan, Brownscape Productions is a full-scale, multimedia production company dedicated to telling stories from the minority perspective. Brownscape Productions brings the minority agenda to the forefront by using the words, images, sounds and creative energies of talented but disenfranchised artists. Made in India? is Brownscape’s feature film debut. The filmmakers hope the film will broaden the minds of its audience with its real life accounts of one woman’s quest for self-awareness.
