Biswajeet Bora’s ‘God on The Balcony’ to be screened at Stuttgart Film Festival

Award-winning filmmaker Biswajeet Bora’s film ‘God on The Balcony’ is gaining a lot of attention across the world. The film has already been showcased at the 24th Shanghai International film festival and the 21st New York Indian Film Festival. The movie will now be officially screened at the ‘18th Indian Film Festival Stuttgart, Germany’.

The film will be competing for the German Star of India for the Best Feature along with some best Indian films of recent times. “Indian Film Festival Stuttgart, Germany, is very close to my heart because they showcased my earlier documentary project ‘Angel of the Aboriginals: Dr. Verrier Elwin’. I am glad and honoured to have got the selection yet again for God on The Balcony”, Director Bora said.

Touted as one of the biggest Indian film festivals in Europe, the 18th edition of the film gala, scheduled from July 21st – 25th, will be held in a virtual format in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, screening a wide selection of films from different genres, including mainstream Hindi productions as well as Indian art house, documentaries, animation, and short films. Additionally, the festival organizers have a strong interest in making newcomer films available to a wide audience.
