Bandra Film Festival to showcase films based on silent crimes 




The lineup of films opens with Telugu film 'Vanaja' , a film dealing with a young girl trying to find her self-worth in the midst of a repressive caste system and physical abuse

A gem from the past, Vanaja is a spirited drama film directed by Rajnesh Domalpalli.

'Tipu', the second film being showcased under the theme is a short heartwrenching drama about a 6-year-old transgender kid Tipu who is sent away to live amidst the transgender community against his own will by his own family, all the time thinking he has been abducted by witches. Directed by Mihir Lath,Tipu  is a short heartwrenching drama .

The third film being showcased under the theme is 'Crash' a docu fictional film directed by Rajdip Ray that  takes a look on the impact of road accident on the people, their apathy, calculated

Speaking about the new line up of films at the festival,  Namrata Grewal from Marketing and Communication at BFF said, “ Silent Crime' is an interesting term, because it's not a cut and dry genre to define, like, say, 'comedy' or 'horror.' That means there are crimes going on that are not acknowledged, ignored or worse still hushed by society's apathy.
This is a genre which will keep the audiences hooked to their screens. BFF programmed this new thematic line up 'Silent Crime' so that our audiences can continue to have the opportunity to watch a wide range of films from the comfort of their homes and in coming days more movies will be added on BFF's platform.' 

The posters of the films were unveiled recently on BFF's social media.
