I Narrate Personally, Not Politically : Marco Bellocchio

My films are not made with any particular political ideology even though it may have a political angle, said Italian cine mastero Marco Bellocchio. He was delivering the 11thAravindan memorial lecture held at Nila theatre on Sunday, as a part of 18th IFFK.
“My films reflect my own experience and feelings. Since I consider filmy media as a visual magma, I often use the scope of television, documentaries, reportage, etc for representing the reality. My films go beyond dimensions. They have element such as   fantasy, imagination that goes beyond   realism. In fact legendary filmmakers like Satyajit Ray, Adoor Gopalakrishnan, Mrinal sen  and Kumar Shahani in India were following an Indianised version of Neorealist tradition”,  he added.
 NC Senan, assistant director of Aravindan’s much acclaimed movie ‘Thampu’, opined, that G Aravindan was a Director of both common masses   as well as intellectuals. Aravindan stimulated the Parallel stream of cinema under the firm conviction that films are the sum total of all Art forms.
Noted Film scholar, Suresh Chappadia was the Moderator and  and  P Mavro  translated  the  lecture  for  Bellocchio.

 Roy Peter , General council member of KSCA  presented the award of honour to  Bellocchio  on behalf of the academy.
