Again a Good Relation....

Arts forms are always closely related. Art of literature is one such form, which is very closelyconnected with films. We can see many a films which came to big screen as an inspiration from literary works. In the venue of IFFK they are getting connected in yet another way.

 In the premise of Tagore theatre, we can see a number of book stalls. All these stalls are mainly concentrating on the books included in the film genre.Kerala Chalachithra Academy is having a book stall, where the festival books are being sold on 15% discount. They are saying that a good sale is carrying out in this category. Chintha publications, Olive publications and all are also having there stall with an excellent collection of books on films.

A Distinct Folk Team...

Obviously they are becoming an entertainment channel for the tiring long queue. We can see many long chains of people waiting for entries to the theatres to watch their movies of interest. But at times many a people at the back end may not be able to access the ticket. Completely boring and tiring queues... Now a group of youngsters are there to entertain themselves and to make others in the queue relaxed.

 YES, IFFK IS A SPACE TO HOLD UP GOOD RELATIONSHIPS.

International Film Festival of Kerala is always an awaiting event for the film lovers. Normally we do recognise people related to film industry, who regularly uses to become part of this event. But it is a matter of fact to mention that there are several common people around us who is much more interested and dedicated towards the act of film.
