The lineup for the Indian Panorama category for 2022 was revealed by the International Film Festival of India (IFFI). The event will screen a total of 25 feature films and 20 non-feature films.

Eminent individuals from the Indian film industry choose films for the Indian Panorama. Out of 242 modern Indian non-feature films, the six-member jury chose 20 for the non-feature film categories.

The statement continued, “The distinguished judging panels use their particular expertise to equally contribute to the decision-making process that determines which Indian Panorama films are chosen for each category.”

The feature film jury was headed by acclaimed director Vinod Ganatra, while the non-feature jury constituted cinematographer A Karthik Raja and filmmaker Anuradha Singh among others.

This year IFFI is scheduled to take place from November 20 to November 28, 2022, in Goa.

“A package of 25 feature films has been selected to be screened in the Indian Panorama section at 53rd IFFI from a broad spectrum of 354 qualifying contemporary Indian feature films,” said a statement issued by the information and broadcasting ministry.

The list of 20 Non-Feature Films comprises Wagro (Konkani), Little Wings (Tamil), Pataal-Tee (Bhotiya), Taangh (English), Other Ray: Art of Satyajit Ray (English), Khajuraho, Anand Aur Mukti (Hindi) and Vibhajan Ki Vibhishka Unkahi Kahaniyan (Hindi).

The Jury’s choice for the opening non-feature film of Indian Panorama, 2022 is The Show Must Go On (English) by filmmaker Divya Cowasji.
