BIFFes 16, 2025: The flicks, picks and my jinx, Part II
My third visit to the Bengaluru International Film Festival (BIFFes) in three decades was enjoyable and comfortable.

As a critic, I prefer to pick films without doing any background reading or asking people who might know somethings about them...
