"Festivals" is our theme for the

a family gathering for a meal to the entire 'tamasha' of government. This
year we invite filmmakers to send us work they have done covering diverse
and various aspects of this theme of festivals.
From harvest related agrarian festivals
and those related to the cycles of the earth to melas, utsavs and 'Vizhas'
held across the geography of our nation.
From religiously inspired festivals
that mark site specific traditions and myths to festivals of empowerment,
like the Koovagam/Aravani festival.
To celebrate alternate sexuality
the festivals of pride week that goes national to festivals celebrating
culture in all its multiple dimensions. It is time to celebrate...Bring
them on!!
