Students of grade 10 and 11 made short documentaries on disappearing street professions under the guidance of Bernard Marescot, an acclaimed French film producer. The films were entirely made by the students right from scripting, directing to editing. The article below chronicles the documentaries made as well as the student film makers.
Also, as we reported here, the film ‘Mahout’ has been nominated in the CMS Vatavaran Film Festival, New Delhi. Janvi Karwal and Krina Prajapati, the directors, will be heading to Delhi on October 27 2009.
Furthermore, Mahout as well as a couple of the other films were recently screen – and extremely well received – at the National Institute of Design, as part of an ongoing film festival. The same set of films are also scheduled to be screened by the Shamiana short film club at the Darpana academy later in the month!
