Description
Director Kiran Rao, whose film 'Lost Ladies' is India's official entry for the Academy Award for Best International Film in 2025, says she hopes it's "the start of a wave of many more stories from India by women". India's mammoth film industry has made barely a dent in the Academy Awards, with just 10 Oscar wins since 1957, but Rao is determined to change this. "I think it's a really big moment. I think our time has finally come." IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
