Make your own movie  FOR FREE!

KUMAR TALKIES invites proposals from young/debut filmmakers for a 
series of 5 short films on the theme of 'CONFLICT' 
(around 5 1/2 min each; fiction, documentary or animation)
 for the Public Service Broadcasting Trust (www.psbt.org)

What is "conflict"? A clash of attitudes. A disharmony between incompatible ideas. A state of prolonged battle. We seek sensitive films that will try to deal with roots and causes of any conflicts, their implications & consequences with hints at resolving them. These conflicts can be anything, including religious, ethnic, political, social, gender, or more personal issues.

-- Five selected film makers will be invited for extensive mentoring sessions to evolve a shooting script/storyboard, shoot and edit their own DV film in any language. 
-- Kumar Talkies will arrange for entire production/post production 
support, along with a team of trained industry professionals (camera, editing, sound.)
-- ALL expenditure - research, travel, mastering, all costs - 
   will be facilitated by Kumar Talkies. 
-- Each stage of work will be reviewed and discussed at length 
   by industry professionals. 
-- The selected filmmakers will be paid a fee of Rs 6,000.
