A month-long European Films Festival is headed to Mumbai in June and will feature works by European directors like Jean-Luc Godard. News One has all the details behind this premiere event for the India's hotspot city:
"The event starting Friday is curated by Taj Enlighten Film Society and supported by the Consulate of Switzerland.
‘The exhibition of masters like Godard to an Indian audience places these works out of their ‘Art House’ comfort zone and instead engages with a cinema of experienced time,’ Pranav Ashar, chairman, Taj Enlighten, said in a statement.
Bed & Board, Army of Shadows, Le Petit Soldat, Oh Woe is Me and Shoot The Piano Player, among others, will be showcased at the festival which will go on till June 26.
Bollywood filmmaker Amole Gupte, who will inaugurate the festival, said: ‘European films stand for the superior-most quality, both in terms of both narrative as well as detailing. I have always enjoyed and admired films by European masters."
