Sub: Screening of the Indian Film ‘Court’ at the 20th Auteur Film Festival, Belgrade on 29th November 2014.

Embassy of India, Belgrade has great pleasure to announce the screening of the Indian film ‘Court’, written and directed by Chaitanya Tamhane, in the 20th Auteur Film Festival, to be held in Belgrade from 26th November to 3rd December 2014. The Indian film will be screened on Saturday, 29th November 2014 at 1730 hrs at Dom Omladine, Makedonska 22, Belgrade.

Mumbai-based filmmaker Chaitanya Tamhane’s debut feature film ‘Court’ was also premiered on September 4, 2014 at the 71st Venice Film Festival. Director-writer Tamhane won two awards for the film – Orizzonti Award for Best Film and Lion of the Future or “Luigi De Laurentiis” Venice Award for a Debut Film.

The film ‘Court’ explores the Indian judiciary system through a court case where a folk singer is tried for abetting the suicide of a manhole worker with his inflammatory song. The film had received the Hubert Bals fund for script and project development in 2012. Before dabbling in this court room drama, Tamhane had made a short film called ‘Six Strands’, which was screened at several film festivals like Edinburgh, Rotterdam and Slamdance.
