For the second year, Oscar-accredited fest will be presented in a digital avatar
The 11th edition of the Bengaluru International Short Film Festival (BISFF) will be held from August 28 to September 5. This is the second consecutive year that the Oscar-accredited BISFF will be presented in a digital avatar due to the pandemic regulations. Film buffs can register on and watch a plethora of short films from different categories. The BISSF, last year, was approved as an Oscar Academy Qualifying Festival for the Short Film Awards. The winning short films in the International and Indian Competition sections of BISFF 2020 are eligible for consideration in the Live Action Short Film Category of the Academy Awards, without standard theatrical run, provided the film complies with the stringent Academy rules. () Besides screening films, the organisers have requested contributions which can be made to “BISFF through a link on their website, to express appreciation to the film-makers and support a worthy cause with indigenous NGO, Vidyanikethan”.More Related News
