The FBR selections, comprising 20 features, two mid-length films and eight shorts are chosen from 247 films in the market’s Viewing Room that presents films from India and South Asia, which are recently completed or still in post-production. The films are available for film festival selection, world sales, distribution partners or finishing funds.
Films from recent labs have gone on to win acclaim globally. They include Jaishankar Aryar’s Busan winner “Shivamma,” Natesh Hegde’s Pingyao and Nantes winner “Pedro,” Irfana Majumdar’s Locarno selection “Shankar’s Fairies,” Ajitpal Singh’s Sundance selection “Fire in the Mountains” and Nitin Lukose’s Toronto selection “Paka: River of Blood.”
Lab selections from 2019 and 2021 had the opportunity to pitch their trailers at the Cannes film market earlier this year. “We have received a record number of submissions for the Viewing Room and Work-in-Progress Lab this year, which goes to show the immense faith that filmmakers across the region have on this platform to present their films – many of which are still in progress – in the best possible manner and enable business opportunities for their films,” saidMD Ravinder Bhakar.
