Goutam Ghose, Chairman: A prolific filmmaker having made 13 features and over 30 documentaries and short films, Goutam is probably the youngest of Indian film directors to have a documentary made on him. In fact, it took two years for Amar Roy to convince Goutam to face the camera for ‘The View Finder‘ which tries to capture the socially committed filmmaker’s dreams and aspirations on celluloid. Born in 1950, Goutam was a strident political activist and a photo journalist who toured the country to document images of life and times in India. His encounter with reality, in stark close-up, inspired him to use cinema as an effective instrument of self-expression. This debut came with ‘Hungry Autumn’, a prize winning documentary. Earlier, he acted in Grihajudda by Buddahaeb Dasgupta in 1982. His first feature film ‘Babhoomi’ in Telugu depicted the uprising of the workers against the Nizam of Hyderabad. In his next film Dakhal in Bengali, Goutam gave a telling portrayal of the life of a nomadic tribe. Other films include ‘Antarjali Yatra’, ‘Padma Nadir Majhi’, ‘Paar’, ‘Patang’, and the famous India-Bangladesh co-production, ‘Moner Manush’. Anamaria Marinca is a Romanian actress. She made her screen debut with the Channel 4 film Sex Traffic, for which she won the British Academy Television Award for Best Actress.

This maverick is Kim Ki-duk, Korea’s most celebrated filmmaker, who has won nearly every top award in the world, climaxing in the top Golden Lion Award at the Venice Festival, this year, for his latest film ‘Pieta.’ ‘Pieta’ will be one of five acclaimed films of the Director that will be screened at IIFI as part of an exclusive Retrospective on the great director. The others are ‘Spring Summer’, ‘The Bow’, ‘Time’, ‘Breath’. This very famous but r e c l u s i v e director, who disappeared from the film scene when he went through a three-year period of depression in 2008, is on his first-ever visit to India. Just before emplaning for India, the director was presented the highest award from his country - the Eun-gwan Silver Crown Medal of the “Order of Culture Merit.” The award is a personal and professional milestone for the director, who, till now has not received much recognition in his homeland for his cinematic achievements, although he is a cult-figure abroad. The Korean director’s life-story is as riveting as his films. Kim Ki-duk was born in a rural town, dropped out of school, and worked as a manual labourer (which is why ‘Pieta’ is autobiographical). He later went to art school in Paris, where he worked as a street artist. He won a screenplay competition in 1996, and entered the world of cinema. Kim Kiduk has made 18 memorable films since then that have been screened at some of the top film festivals of the world Five acclaimed films of the director will be screened in the Retrospective, while another film ‘Spring, OUR ESTEEMED JURY known for her performance in 4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days, earning several awards for her performance, and was nominated for the Chlotrudis Award for Best Actress, European Film Award for Best Actress, London Film Critics Circle Award for Actress of the Year, Los Angeles Film Critics Association Award for Best Actress and National Society of Film Critics Award for Best Actress.

But I also want to say that humans can eventually be forgiven for their crimes.” As for his trip to India, the director sated “I have visited many countries, but this is my first trip to India, and I am excited. I am aware that the musical films here are cheerful and happy. I hope the audiences will accept my film which has a cruel, sad story. All I would like to say, is that they may feel a ‘miracle moment’, if they watch the film with their heart. ” -Lekha Shankar
