A film festival of South-Asian documentary films and travelling films is being screened from the 23rd to the 25th of this month at S N School (Golden Threshold) Campus in Abids. Around 15 documentaries made by filmmakers of five different countries - India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal and Trinidad - will be screened at the venue. The films will portray an in-depth review of the South Asian concerns and will greatly help research students pursuing film technology courses.
