Speaking at Mumbai Film Festival, where he’s receiving the Excellence In Cinema Award, director Jia Zhangke reveals plans for China’s new arthouse circuit and details of his new company Fabula.
It’s one of the ironies of China’s booming theatrical market that award-winning and prestige films, from either Chinese auteurs or overseas directors, struggle to secure a theatrical release. Even when they do manage to reach screens, they are usually programmed in unfavourable time slots.
“Mountains May Depart had around 1.2 million admissions when it was released in cinemas, but more than ten million views online,” says Jia Zhangke, referring to his last feature, which played in competition at Cannes in 2015.
“There’s an audience out there but we have to figure out how to reach them. Previously the arthouse audience was just confined to the big cities, but it’s now moving to smaller cities and provincial capitals.”

On May 26, when the 66th Cannes film festival draws to an end, India will anxiously wait to see if either Monsoon Shootout or Dabba will bring home a Camera d’Or, the award given to the best debut film in the festival. Ritesh Batra’s Dabba which played in the International Critics’ Week won an audience award-the Grand Rail d’Or-following unanimous praise by the critics and the audiences.
While we wait, let’s go down in the annals of history to know about the Indian films that won awards at the premier film festival. Although they might seem like a rare and exquisite breed, there are actually quite a few of them starting from the very first edition of Cannes.

Intrigued by what I heard about it, I quickly went through the website and was amazed to see world renowned directors such as Abbas Kiarostami (Iran), Im Kwontaek(Korea) and Kurosawa Kiyoshi(Japan) as Deans of the previous years. I was inspired to be part of the Afa.

Manchester Kurdish Film Festival, Manchester
Being a stateless region in the most volatile part of the Middle East, it's no surprise that the cinema of Kurdistan is full of conflicts and borders. The Quarter Of Scarecrows is an allegorical take on the Iran-Iraq war, while Son Of Babylon and Mando both use quests for missing family members to survey the current, devastated landscape. Kick Off, meanwhile, is based on real events at a refugee camp in a Kirkuk stadium where a man attempts to settle Kurdish-Iraqi differences through the international medium of football.

The Avengers 50th Anniversary Celebration, Chichester
Facing cold war danger with a very English combination of wit, judo, kinky boots and superior umbrella manufacture, The Avengers led where many spy thrillers still follow – not least James Bond, which first came to the screen a year later, and poached a few Avengers stars in its time.

The Indian documentaries which will be presented at the festival are: Marathon Boy directed by Gemma Atwal (2010, India-uk-usa) and Gandhi’s Children, directed by Vishnu Vasu (2010, Sri Lanka-India).
Marathon Boy follows Budhia, the four-year-old prodigy plucked from the slums of India and trained for marathon which ultimately leads to a tale of greed, envy and broken dreams. Gandhi’s Children is a personal documentary capturing the lives of dalits and tribals in India.

They(Cannes) have a very Euro-us centric view of cinema which we cannot conform to. We are neither the Far-east like Japan, nor the West in that sense. We are the in-between world.

We have seen a number of films about farmer’s lives; so here is another. This time, it is a satire. It presents itself with a fairly insistent and consistent tone that the excesses of the narrative stand for something else. The success of a satire is measured by the suggestion of its target: what is it making fun of? Who is it directed against? A farmer finds his goat to be a beloved possession, the last in the lineage that has continued for 500 years. He must get her to her male counterpart in heat so s/he can continue that lineage. There are other things to do in life, of course;attending to his wife and family, offering some supervision as a parent to his wayward son and to counsel and protect his married daughter who is home after a serious domestic quarrel. Why is Kalyan after this virgin goat?...

It wasn’t until Vikramaditya Motwane saw his name on a board alongside those of filmmakers like Abbas Kiarostami and Ridley Scott that the gravity of having made a film that was officially selected for the Cannes film festival sank in. The debutant director’s Udaan was the first Indian film to make the official selection since Murali Nair’s Arimpara in 2003, and it was also the first time Udaan was seen by an audience larger than 50 people. “It was nerve-wracking.

Gautaman BhaskaranIt is only natural that Vikramaditya Motwane’s Udaan arrived at the ongoing Cannes Film Festival literally on a flight of hope and expectation. For, India has had a no-show for seven years, the last entry from the nation of 1200 movies a year being in 2003. Murali Nair’s Arimpara from Kerala had certainly been a rank bad choice, and poorly conceived and made. And to boot, what a subject of a mole on a man’s face growing with gigantic alarm!

Vikramaditya Motwane’s “Udaan”, the film that made it to Un Certain Regard at Cannes International Film festival after seven years has been the talk of the town lately. With Udaan, Indian cinema’s seven year long jinxed relationship with the premier film festival has come to an end. Murali Nair’s Arimpara was the last film to have made it to Un Certain Regard, the section that carries the second most prestigious award, in the year 2003. Prior to that, Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Devdas was presented as a special screening out of competition at the festival in 2002.
Come to think of it, India and Cannes have had a cordial relationship right from the start. 1946, the year one of the oldest film festivals began at Cannes, Chetan Anand’s Neecha Nagar was screened as a Feature film in competition.
