Opportunity Information: Apply for CRFP14 03
The U.S. Consulate General in Chennai is providing funding for a film festival that will be held in Chennai, Bangalore, and Kochi (or Trivandrum). This festival aims to honor the legacy of journalist Daniel Pearl and promote discussions on the vital role of a free press. It will feature film screenings showcasing the challenges faced by journalists, followed by moderated discussions.
The project involves organizing three three-day festivals, each including a mix of feature films, short films, and documentaries that reflect the principles of free speech. The awardee is responsible for securing at least four films from American producers, obtaining necessary film rights, government approvals, and ensuring films are suitable for each location, including local language adaptations.
Collaboration with local journalism and film institutions will be encouraged to enhance the festivals. The awardee must also arrange for panelists, which may include filmmakers and journalists, and will need to submit a complete proposal that accounts for all associated costs such as logistics, film rights, and publicity. Proposals will be reviewed by a panel from the Consulate, and those selected will need to complete additional forms to access funding. Additional funding sources can also be pursued, with prior approval from the Consulate and the U.S. Embassy in New Delhi.Apply for CRFP14 03
