Now Oscar and Cannes at your doorstep
Film lovers will find a wonderful opportunity to watch Oscar and Cannes selected films in Udaipur. These films include ‘Mombatti’ (Cannes) and ‘Road to Home’ (Oscar) in the listing.
Iara Lee standing up to US Capitalism
It is significant to know that there will be the screening of 6 films made by the prominent filmmaker and social activist Lara Lee in UIFF. She came to Jaipur to participate in the 3rd and 4th JIFF this year and her film ‘Cultures of Resistance’ won the ‘Green Rose’ in the Red Carpet Award Ceremony.
This year, she attempted to expose the exploitative face of the American capitalists through various documentary works. Her works highlighted the negative influence of America in various parts of the world including Iraq, Afghanistan and Africa. The best thing about the films of Lara Lee is that they help us to explore those facts which most of the people actually don’t know.
‘Meherjaan’ by Rubiyat to recall the meaning of relations
‘Meherjaan’ is a beautiful film by Bangladeshi filmmaker depicting the actual terms of relationship. The film is also well noted by the critics for outstanding performance by renowned actress, Jaya Bachchan.
Jungle Mein Jalianwala
It is a documentary film director by Anurag Sharma based on the massacre of the tribal communities within the state of Rajasthan during the British era.
It is reprimand as another catastrophic event like Jallianwala Bagh massacre, and is worth watching to honor the sacrifice of tribal communities.
