"Threads is a beautifully composed and thoughtful meditation on the stakes of collaboration among those from different social and professional backgrounds. The film suggests that designers can work sustainably and contribute to development by engaging with artisans' technical knowledge and social and aesthetic preferences." – Matthew Raj Webb, New York University, Anthropology of Work Review

"Through the visually stunning threads of India, Katherine Sender and Shuchi Kothari shed the light on the need of both past and present to create a solid textile industry for the future. By showing us how India is redefining its crafts and how crafts have revolutionized design, they provide possible solutions for makers losing their jobs, and for designers looking for inspiration. 

If anything, Threads tells us that traditional textile makers must welcome the future, and contemporary designers must embrace the past, for both to preserve their livelihoods and lifestyles. In the process, thousands of families survive and we get to keep our roots in the face of faceless screens and social alienation." – Yasmine Dabbous, Kinship Stories/Espace Fann
