Greg Dixon: 本期节目讨论了印度电影《All We Imagine As Light》在国际上获得成功，却在印度国内未得到认可，甚至未被选为印度角逐奥斯卡的影片。 Dia Hadid: 对电影《All We Imagine As Light》进行了详细的介绍，讲述了电影的主题、故事情节以及导演Payal Kapadja的创作理念。电影展现了印度女性在孟买的生活，以及她们在城市发展中的困境和人际关系。 Ankara Pathak: 指出该电影获得国际赞誉后，一度被认为是印度角逐奥斯卡最佳外语片的有力竞争者。 Ravi Kuttadakata: 印度电影评选委员会主席解释了为什么没有选择《All We Imagine As Light》作为奥斯卡参赛影片，认为该片不够“印度”。 Payal Kapadia: 导演对“什么是印度电影”的定义提出了质疑，认为演员和剧组成员都是印度人，只有一名法国公民。 Anna Vedikat: 一位影评人认为，选择奥斯卡参赛影片应该选择最有可能获奖的影片。 Dia Hadid: 总结了整个事件的争议，指出评选委员会对印度女性的描述具有歧视性，其评价既贬低了《All We Imagine As Light》，也贬低了印度电影在奥斯卡获奖的可能性。
