13th International Film Festival of Kerala - My Experience



It was my first film festival. It was the 13th film festival of Kerala. I enjoyed it very much. The signature film disappointed me very much. The Director of the Signature film
Mr. V R Gopinath tried to portray the Chandrayan Mission. But it was not so impressive. Compared with, Vipin Vijay’s last signature film it was a real mess up. I watched 21 films all together. Among all those films I liked “The Photograph” very much. I could understand various cultures from all over the world. Through out the week I was flying on the wings of imagination. I got a chance to get acquainted with a lot of people who have been living for the seven colours of Cinema. The greatest effect that this film festival brought on me was that I became a cineaste. This film festival, we witnessed quite a new experience named Balcony reservation. But there were some problems regarding with it and they could have been avoided. I hope that in the next year it will be organized in a proper manner. By watching films throughout a week, at last I got fed up with the films. I was a bit reluctant to watch the films on the last day that’s why I avoided the afternoon screening. The last day was the day of celebration and we enjoyed it very much at 'Nishagandi Auditorium'. It was an unforgettable memory in my life.
