Thiruvananthapuram is set to host an international docu-short film festival featuring acclaimed works from notable filmmakers this Saturday. The event, organized by the Banner Film Society, will take place at Lenin Balavadi, with screenings commencing at 9:30 am. The festival lineup includes six documentaries such as “All That Breaths” by Shaunak Sen, “I Was in Love with Letters” by Anup Narayanan, “Kumaraparvam” by Mahesh Panju, “Mannu” by Ramdas Kadavallur, “How Banner Film Society Became a Success” by Deepak Gopi, and the Oscar-winning “The Elephant Whisperers.” Additionally, three short films will be featured: “Cheers” by director Sudevan, “Two” by director Satyajith Ray, and “Bhoomi” by director Midhun. Entry to the festival is free.
Banner Film Society Secretary R Biju emphasizes that the docu-short film festival aims to attract a larger audience. Recognizing the often low turnout for documentary and short film screenings, Biju expresses the festival’s intent to address this issue, providing a platform for filmmakers to showcase their work to a broader viewership.
