About this listen

In this inspiring conversation, host Barbara Tucker welcomes Dr. Jeevani Sammeta, assistant professor of communication at Dalton State College, whose journey spans from Hyderabad, India, to northwest Georgia. Dr. Sammeta shares how she transitioned from engineering to filmmaking and academia, reflects on the cultural shifts between India and the U.S., and explains her research on the growing national influence of South Indian cinema. She also discusses her creative process, her new documentary projects, and the joy of teaching film. Together, they explore storytelling, creativity, and the beauty of carrying one’s culture across continents.
