The previous editions of Cinemela film festival received overwhelming response from all quarters and the Limca Book of World Records has recognized the festival for its uniqueness.
The festival intends to take the films created by young artists to the young audience and is an effort to make a space for the new creative voices from all over the world which is denied by the crude logic of media industry. We believe that these woks deserve attention for their ability to go beyond local issues and provincial tastes while simultaneously opening up a window onto a diverse culture. Cinemela is designed to serve as a glass through which audience may have an opportunity to glimpse important aspects of rapidly emerging creative sensibilities which are all set to conquer the future. Keeping this in view, we plan to take the selected films from the festival to other campuses and places.
The young films, despite the diverse styles and subjects, tell something about the cultures from which they spring, and have the capability to make an impression with their individuality. The festival aspires to provide an ideal opportunity to enjoy the pleasure of regional distinctiveness through films and rejoice in their universal appeal. With the images and sounds of these films, we learn about other portions of the world and witness the ascendancy of new artists to creative acclaim.
All are invited to be submerged in an experience of dissimilarity, to be lost in strange spheres, to perceive unfamiliar languages, to observe unusual styles, to discover new voices and visions.
The festival also provides a platform where interactions among veteran film persons, young filmmakers, audience and others can be possible in informal manner. This aims to satisfy our curiosity, assuage our suspicion, arouse our sympathies, and heighten our appreciation. We are hopeful that an inevitable degree of knowing calculation will enter into the experience on both sides.
We invite the cine-lovers to visit an arena where the future of cinema is taking shape.
