Short film competition
“Film is an exciting and wonderful medium, and short films have been at the centre of cinema activity since the dawn of the movies. The Satyajit Ray Short Film Competition will encourage young film-makers to explore life and put it on the screen, just as Ray himself did in his inspiring work”
Short films are an important art form, requiring discipline and precision to be successful. Ray himself includes short films and documentaries in his impressive filmography. Many other award winning filmmakers, including James Ivory, Asif Kapadia, Gurinder Chadha, found that their early short film work was instrumental in launching their feature film careers.
