ViBGYOR International Film Festival

[Mazhavilmela]

Celebrating identities and diversity

ViBGYOR expresses the significance of each colour in the rainbow, and it tells us ‘beauty’ comes from diversity rather than uniformity. In a world where differences are tolerated lesser day by day, ViBGYOR celebrates the diversity of life and culture.

ViBGYOR International Film Festival is a celebration of human spirit, expressed through the medium of cinema. It covers the living experience of millions of people across the globe, witnessed and retold in the form of documentary and short fiction films, by a number of skilled and committed filmmakers from across the world. The films that talk about the struggles of people for existence and for basic human rights find the right audience at ViBGYOR.

The five-day Film festival is not only a treat of brilliant films, but also an invaluable platform for an interface with filmmakers, activists, leaders of people’s movements, academicians, students and common people from diverse streams of life.

Celebrating Identities and Diversities is the central theme of ViBGYOR, which in its breadth and depth represents the most basic social issues, which we consider as the colours of the ViBGYOR Spectrum. They are:

Identities

Rights

Environment & Developmentalism

Nation State

Gender & Sexuality

Fundamentalism v/s Diversity

Culture & Media
