it's by creating with people that interaction is truly an experience 

You know when people say, "It's a cliché because it's true"? Well, when it comes to Piemonte, we can't deny this great truth: the only thing missing is the sea. Beyond the clichés, let's explain why this statement holds water. The diverse landscape of Piemonte is a huge asset for tourism and an invaluable resource for the Italian and international film industry. It's rare to find, within a few kilometers, what Piedmont has to offer. That's why at FCTP, with a touch of irony that anyone in the film industry – an industry that's both business and art – can appreciate, we often say it, especially when we're abroad, attending the world's top film festivals to represent the region and promote its position as a premier film destination: all we lack is the sea.

In conclusion, the film industry in 2024 is a dynamic and evolving field, marked by technological innovations, cultural shifts, and a commitment to sustainability. These trends are not only transforming the way films are produced and distributed but also how they are experienced by audiences worldwide. https://lnkd.in/e8sGJdbA.

A Critical Analysis of India's Oscar Submissions: While "Laapataa Ladies" might be a commendable choice, the question of whether it truly represents our nation's best cinematic offerings remains a valid one. Despite All we imagine is Light that won Cannes Grand Prix 2024 is not considered. Why do we often overlook critically acclaimed films like "All That Breathes" or “All we imagine is Light”? *Is it Commercial Bias: The Indian film industry is heavily influenced by commercial success. Films that perform well at the box office often receive more attention and are considered more "representative" of Indian cinema. *What Genre Preferences: There might be a preference for certain genres (like dramas or historical epics) that are perceived as more "serious" or "Oscar-worthy." This can overlook films from other genres that might be equally deserving. *Selection Committees: The composition of the selection committees plays a crucial role. If the committee members have specific preferences or biases, it can influence their choices. What should we be looking for in an Oscar submission? *Artistic Merit: The film should demonstrate exceptional craftsmanship, storytelling, and technical prowess. *Cultural Significance: It should reflect Indian culture, values, and experiences in a meaningful way. *Universal Appeal: While the film should be rooted in Indian context, it should also resonate with audiences from different backgrounds. *Critical Acclaim: Positive reviews from both domestic and international critics can be a strong indicator of quality. *Festival Recognition: Awards and nominations from prestigious film festivals can enhance a film's credibility. To improve the selection process, we could consider: Expanding the selection committee: Include representatives from various regions, genres, and age groups. Establishing a transparent selection process: Publish the criteria and rationale for the choice. Encouraging submissions from independent filmmakers: Provide support and resources to independent filmmakers. Promoting diversity in storytelling: Consider films that explore different themes and perspectives. By considering these measures, we can ensure that India's Oscar submissions truly represent the best of our cinematic talent and showcase our rich cultural heritage to the world. #oscars#oscars2024#films#indianfilms
