India in a Day, produced by filmmakers Ridley Scott and Anurag Kashyap, is a one-hour-20-minute documentary that came out nine years ago. What makes the film special is that it was crowdsourced. The directors gathered footage from everyday Indians who uploaded it on a cloud server. What emerges from it is a great picture of India! The film is a great reminder of what our country has come to. There is an especially memorable one-minute timelapse at the end of the film. Catch it on YouTube.
