PLUNGING into the whirl of credit disputes and unresolved equations, the state's film policy conclave witnessed open differences among major industry associations. Actor-director Revathy Asha, representing the Women in Cinema Collective (WCC), highlighted how the group was instrumental in initiating major conversations around inclusivity and reform. FEFKA representative Ranji Panicker, however, felt it was an attempt to claim 'undue credit'.

Meanwhile, director Anjali Menon pointed out the presence of established power equations in the industry, but acknowledged a change in approach.
