Tannishtha fascinated with city of Rome

Actress-turned-filmmaker Tannishtha Chatterjee, who was quite determined to shoot her debut film 'Roam Rome Mein' in Rome, says that the city plays an important role in the story, as the narrative revolves around feminism.

"I had to go to Rome to shoot the film. That was a fact I knew from the beginning, even though I had no budget initially. My film looks at the city of Rome from a different angle because, we must not forget, Rome is the city where the genesis of modern feminism started.

I had to go and shoot the film there for that historical context, because feminism is a part of my narrative. The city of Rome plays a character in the film," Tannishtha told IANS. According to Tannishtha, the global audience, especially the people of Rome, got a chance to revisit the historical memories of their culture through her film.
