What Filmmakers Are Saying About VTIFF

Glad to be part of Village Talkies International Film Festival at CMS College, Kottayam. The festival created a welcoming space for independent films, creative conversations and genuine engagement with cinema.

SHAJI A JOHN

Film Director, Kerala

As per my experience, VTIFF is a great festival hosted by an institution that is more than 200 years old, academically inclined, yet close to the film-loving community. The way they organised, communicated throughout the event, promoted my film, and held a vibrant audience interaction is just exactly what a filmmaker honestly dreams of. I am filmmaker based in London and I would recommend this festival to every other true lover of cinema anywhere in the world.

James Smith

Film Director, London

I truly loved the festival; the festival and its team are a perfect example of people who genuinely respect and value art.
