ICFT-UNESCO Gandhi Medal The International Film Festival of India (IFFI) 2017 in collaboration with the International Council for Film, Television and Audiovisual Communication (ICFT), Paris, will present a special ICFT prize consisting of the UNESCO Gandhi Medal awarded to a film which reflects the ideals promoted by UNESCO. Broad guidelines for the selection of the films are - • Have a strong ethical component • High aesthetic value • Exhibit artistic excellence in screenplay, in film technique and music • Attract a wide audience, especially among youth, whose view of media is distorted by violent imagery and showy techniques which are devoid of intelligent and critical discernment • Additionally include an educational component to cope with the flood of inappropriate imagery commonly marketed • Awareness of the role of the filmmaker confronting a declining society; because it is recognized that cinematographic and video images are much more powerful than any other means of communication About the UNESCO Gandhi Medal In 1994, UNESCO issued a commemorative medal marking the 125th anniversary of the birth of Mahatma Gandhi, India’s “Father of the Nation” and the world’s advocate of non-violence, peace and tolerance. The General Conference of one of the previous years had adopted a resolution calling for a series of activities around the “great world personality whose thought and creative modes of non-violent action have shaped socio-economic and political currents in the 20th century”. The medal bears a portrait of Gandhi engraved by the French artist Pierre-Yves Tremois. Etched underneath is the Mahatma’s message of hope: “In the midst of darkness light prevails”. The reverse side carries the UNESCO Logo. 22 INTERNATIONAL CINEMA IFFI 2017
