Our Work

MAM: ‘I AM’ is what it means in Sanskrit. It’s an incubation center to assist the emergence of stories that gives us faith, hope and courage. In today’s transiting times, these stories helps us to re-establish connection with our self, with our community and with mother nature.

Founded in 2007, MAM MOVIES has worked extensively with young filmmakers and non-profit organizations to encourage participatory and community media. Through various experiments, we have tried to harness the innate sensibilities of the youth, sensitize them to the societal, economic and environmental challenges to bring about social transformation through stories and effective communication.

​

OUR PROJECTS INCLUDES:

  • Workshops on power of stories and media for social change

  • Engaging youth to make short films on everyday heroes – Through “yes I am the change film project’, India’s biggest film competition project, thousands of films were made.

  • Empowering Non-profit organizations with films and media needs- More than 500 short professional films were made

  • Documenting oral stories and wisdom of Gandhian elders

​

Organizations we worked with includes: UNFPA, USAID, ICICI foundation, Yes Foundation, Sabarmati Gandhi Ashram and others
