Visages Villages is directed by Agnès Varda and JR and showcases their adventures as they complete their villages project. The film was a piece that explored the lives of french individuals in the intimate villages in quiet areas of France. It serves as a human interest piece as well as an homage and celebration of Agnès Varda, who’s influence during the french new wave was lasting and has garnered her much respect and admiration in the industry. Personally, the pie...
Netflix's first press showing of Okja, was interupted due to a technical difficulty; the film was misframed on the big screen and the international press started to boo before the film was stopped. They were able to set up the film properly and continue with the showing and Cannes has apologized for the technical malfunction, but by then the audience had formed a hostile environment.
Netflix's presence at this year's festival has sparked an interesting debate wit...

Siraj Syed’s IFFI 2016 diary, XIV: Catching what you can!
If you really want to notch up six films a day, you can. All you need is luck, in terms of show slots and seats, an insatiable appetite for cinema of all forms from all countries, no appetite for food of the eating and drinking kind, an alarm clock body that can turn off on demand and turn on at will, and no commitments or engagements that you cannot skip or postpone during the festival period. Well, I might score high in terms o...

IFFI: 1,000 entries from 100 countries
Ten days to go for the commencement of the International Film Festival of India (IFFI), and there is no confirmation for media accreditation as yet. This being the 47th IFFI and my 47th year in film journalism, I am sure the concern is unfounded, though. Also being missed is the customary press conference, which is held well before the event. Meanwhile, here are some of the major attractions expected in Panaji, Goa, during November 20-28.

NYIFF package comes to India
Like “Nasa”, they pronounce the acronym “Nyiff/nife”. And it is indeed ‘nice’ that a selection of films shown at NYIFF 2016 is being screened in Mumbai, during 21 June-21 July. It took the dedicated efforts of a team led by architect/interior designer/film producer Anuradha Parikh’s G5A Foundation for Contemporary Culture to make it happen.
