Malini Sur is an anthropologist and a senior research fellow at the Institute for Culture and Society, Western Sydney University. Her research interests address three broad areas—borders, mobility, and citizenship—with a focus on South Asia. Malini has been investigating the relationship between urban traffic, bicycling, and migration in eastern India. Life Cycle (2016) is her first ethnographic documentary film on this subject. Photographs from her fieldwork have been exhibited in Amsterdam, Berlin, Bonn, Chiang Mai, Gottingen, Heidelberg, Kathmandu, and Munich.
