Ray and Bergman biggest inspirations: Bahman Farmanara

“Indian Cinema has witnessed the mastery of prominent filmmaker Satyajit Ray who has produced incredible films with minimum facilities. The enormous film scale of Ray’s films have always been an influential factor, with realistic themes portrayed in relevant contexts”, said Iranian film director Bahman Farmanara in the ‘Meet The Press’ session of the 23 rd IFFK. “Swedish filmmaker Ernst Ingmar Bergman and American filmmaker Oliver Stone have also been major guidance to me in narrating stories of people, their issues related to socio-economic and cultural aspects, in a far more exciting perspective”, told Farmanara, whose film, ‘Tale of the Sea’ is in the International Competition section of the fest. ‘Tale of the Sea’ is a byproduct of the renaissance of art and artists in the past 40 years of Iran.

Those Who Ban Films, Have Not Seen The Films: Majid Majidi EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW TO IFFK MEDIA CELL

“Those who ban films, have not seen the films. As for ‘Muhammad’ (Muhammad: The Messenger of God), I don’t even know what is wrong.

When everybody is feeling insecure, their voices become louder: Vetrimaaran

“The whole of India has started making political statements and political films because that is the need of the hour. The secularism has to be saved, and when everybody is feeling insecure, they start voicing out louder”, said filmmaker and screenwriter Vetrimaaran. “The majority is insecure and so are the minorities, no one feels secure about their place in the country. Cinema has been a tool of political proclamation and liberation”, added he. He was participating in the ‘In Conversation’ segment of the 23rd IFFK. “In popular Cinema, you often see the one person who brings an end to all the issues.
