Writing with Fire is a 2021 Indian documentary film directed by filmmakers Sushmit Ghosh and Rintu Thomas about the journalists running the Dalit women led newspaper Khabar Lahariya, as they shift from 14-years of print to digital journalism using smartphones. It is the first Indian feature documentary to be nominated for an Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature.[3]

Produced under Ghosh and Thomas' Black Ticket Films banner, the film had its world premiere at the 2021 Sundance Film Festival, where it won two awards, the Audience Award and a Special Jury Award in the World Cinema Documentary category.[4] It received unanimous acclaim from film festivals and critics, winning several international awards and critical acclaim from the press. It was named a "Critics Pick" by The New York Times,[5] and Jason Rezaian at The Washington Post called it "the most inspiring journalism movie — maybe ever".[6] In 2023, Writing With Fire won a Peabody Award for Best Documentary Film,[7][8] making Rintu and Sushmit the first Indian filmmakers in the award's 83-year history to win this recognition.
