Panaji, Nov 20 (UNI) The 50th edition of the International Film Festival of India begins in Goa with the screening of the Italian film Despite the Fog.
Speaking at the press conference with the cast and crew, Director Goran Paskaljevic, who has also served as Jury head at the 44th edition said, the film looks at the ‘serious issue revolving around minor refugees in Europe.
“It’s an intimate story. There are many films already done on the subject. But this is a story about whether people accept or don’t accept refugees in Europe and most cases they don’t. It serves a metaphor to explore the xenophobic fog prevalent in the region,” he said.
