ABOUT NOIR IN MUMBAI

Noir in Mumbai premiered in India in November 2022, as part of the Tata Literature Live Festival. Headed by the French Institute in India and Alliance Francaise de Bombay, this one-of-a-kind project in Mumbai aimed at creating an enriching literary and cultural Franco-Indian experience for all mystery aficionados. The series of events brought popular French crime literature authors to Mumbai for panel discussions, film screenings and not to forget, the first Urban Investigation Game: Kala Ghoda Mystery, written and conceptualised by the author Kalpana Swaminathan.
