The inaugural edition of the Gothenburg Indie Film Festival will screen three Indian indies- Vivek Budakoti’s Piep Piper, Utpal Borpujari’s Songs of the Blue Hills and Phurba Tshering Lama’s short The Broken Path.
The indie film festival, to be held in Sweden from May 22-25, will showcase 65 films from 30 countries.
Organised by the Ngo Film För Fred (Film for peace), the festival specifically aims to ‘inform about the urgent social, environmental and political issues of the world’.
Budakoti’s Pied Piper, a Hindi feature film, is a satire where the protagonist Chunnilal (Rajpal Yadav) is rumored to have acquired his beloved donkey’s brains in a freak accident. Soon, he becomes the most popular hero whom the establishments start to fear. The film won the Best Screenplay award at the recently concluded Cardiff Independent Film Festival.
