Seven-film Indian package for Cannes
S.R. Ashok Kumar
CHENNAI:
The `Cinema of the World' section at Cannes International film festival this year honours Indian cinema with a seven-film package that includes Hindi films `Guru,' `Lage Raho Munnabhai' and `Dharm,' Tamil film `Veyil,' Malayalam film `Saira,' Bengali film `Dosar' and English film `Missed Call.'
The makers of all seven films including veterans Mani Ratnam, Rituparno Ghosh and Shankar were present at the inauguration of this section.
The film is about the problems faced by Hindus and Muslims at Varanasi, and is directed by Bhavna. Nallamuthu, a product of the Chennai Film and Television Institute of Tamil Nadu, does the photography.
Belonging to the batch of 1986, his documentary and short films have been telecast on leading international satellite television channels such as National Geographic, Discovery Channel, BBC and Star.
He has also produced "Naalai," a Tamil film. The film will be screened in the `Cinema of the World' section on the penultimate day of the festival.
Nallamuthu says high definition camera costs less than most other formats.
