MUMBAI:
After a two-year hiatus, the Osian's Cinefan Film Festival
will return this year from 27 July at the Siri Fort
auditorium in New Delhi.
The
10-day festival has also gone in for a new logo. The
festival has opted for Turtle as its symbol. The change
is an attempt to highlight the festival's increased
focus on environmental issues.
With
'Freedom of Creative Thought & Expression' as the
main theme this year, the 12th edition of the festival
will showcase an exciting and bold programme of over
200 films from more than 50 countries, the organisers
said in a statement.
A
new section, called 7.4, is to be dedicated to the
themes of environmental issues. It will be a precursor
to a summit on natural and man-made heritage. Apart
from competition sections, special platforms will
be accorded to first features, animation and also
short films.
The
festival's last edition was held in 2009.
