Film Festival News, Opportunity for Film Industry Professionals


WELCOME TO TIFF !

TIFF is a monthly live screening film festival with an annual live film screening mega event in Bolpur.

The word Shantiniketan means “Abode of Peace”. It is built on the vision of Nobel Laureate Rabindranath Tagore, who wanted to create a space where people can interchange their ideas about art, culture and life in general. Bolpur’s air still breathes his energy, his passion and his free thinking. People from all over the world come to Bolpur to participate in the Poush Mela and Vasant utsav. Another unique feature of Bolpur is its lush greenery and Kopai River along the Sonajhuri forest in Khoai. The landscape purifies one’s soul.

Maurice Huvelin

Contentísimos, damos las gracias a este festival por valorar lo que tanto cuesta a veces de ver en los festivales, y es que sin un buen sonido y un buen montaje que realiza el ingeniero de sonido, gracias al sonido también que se utiliza en rodaje, es la suma del 50 por cierto para que ese cortometraje se vea también profesional. Muchísimas gracias por este premio. Saludos desde España

Yolanda Belvis
