Khisa is among
58 feature films, documentaries and short films in 15 languages from across
India that have been selected for NYIFF 2021.
Marathi
short film Khisa (Pocket),Its debut directed by Raj Pritam
More, has been selected to be screened at the 21st New York Indian Film
Festival (NYIFF). Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, the film festival will be
held virtually from June 4 to 15 2021.
Raj
Pritam More has won the 67th National Film Award for Best
Directorial Debut for his short film Khisa. which is considered among the most
prestigious awards of India.
More told that he was delighted about winning the
coveted award. "Every filmmaker wishes to win a National Award," he said. This is his second National award, he already win 54th
National Academy Award by Lalit Kala Academy New Delhi and Best Asia Art Award
from Asia. Korea..He from JJ School of Art Mumbai.
The filmmaker, a respected contemporary visual artist, said the award has
given him a lot of confidence. "This was my first film and I had invested
the past two years in it. It had won many awards at various international
festivals but after it got selected for the International Film Festival of India this year, I realized that there was a chance that we could win the
National Award. I can't contain my happiness. I would also like to thank my
team, especially my writer, DOP and the editor for having full faith in my
vision.
“The whole
story revolves around the shirt. The child is proud of his pocket. It sets him
apart from others his age, whose pockets are not only smaller but also ordinary
and similar to each other. The little boy does not understand the politics of
symbolism that adults engage in, and his pocket soon becomes a point of
contention amongst elders in the village. This story of a loss of innocence and
coming-of-age of a young boy, is ironically, symbolic of the times we live in,”
said More.
The filmmaker
added that he was planning to work on a different film and had called Kailash
Waghmare for casting. “He told me that in his village there had been an
incident of a child who had attempted to stand out from the crowd by wearing a
shirt with an unusually large pocket. I realised that this was the story I
wanted to tell and Waghmare wrote it,” said the director. Waghmare plays the
father of the child in the film.
