Young moviemakers honoured

Young moviemakers honoured
Amalshan GunarathneYoung talent was showcased in abundance at Alliance France De Kotte when Bonsoir Television Magazine organized a short film festival to celebrate its 25th anniversary. The entries for the film festival were selected from young moviemakers all over the country including North and Central Provinces. An award ceremony was held later in the evening at the National Film Corporation Theatre to acknowledge and spur young moviemakers who sent their creations to the festival.
The award winners [Image]Prominent figures in the movie industry such as Boodi Keerthisena, Prasanna Vithanage, Sumithra Peiries and Rajarathnam were present at the event to support and encourage the budding artistes. The panel of judges comprised seasoned movie producers such as Sumithra Peries and Ashoka Handagama. Speaking at the event senior filmmaker Sumithra Peries expressed that even they were struck by the diversity of the themes articulated by the young filmmakers. She added that the local cinema will be enriched by the power of their commitment.Out of the lot 15 movies made it to the final round and seven awards were given. The grand award for the best short film went to Sujeewa Gunarathne for his short movie Limits. The movie focused its attention on two completely different personalities who find it hard to co-exist within a certain system due to their ideological differences and the disparities of their attitude towards life. Speaking to Artscope the grand award winner Sujeewa Guanrathne said: "I have been working as an art director with popular movie producers for years and have always felt the need to create my own work, so I decided to make this short movie as a start."Special Jury Award went to Lahiru Samarasinghe for his White and Black where he made an allegorical reference to the modern day politics. The movie also portrayed the conflict between good and evil using the image of a white rabbit which was a very novel and innovative movie concept. Mujeenath, one of the Tamil participants in the event, was given a special Jury Mention for his movie The Noon. It was among one of the most poignant and touching movies at display, where he showed the difficulties and hardships a common homeless person go through while trying to find his afternoon lunch. Chaturika Nimalachandra and Nayani Sandya Chandrasinghe won merit awards for their movies Dolls and The Snail respectively.Apart from nominees and winners the event featured were a few other movies which raised eyebrows of the audience. Janaka Jananda Bandara's Manasa was an enthralling one, where he seems to discuss the sexual alienation and loneliness of man drawing parallels from the genesis story in Bible. Then there was also Iresh Lokubandara's Laugh where he brings out the gravity of war using animated action figures which was a very novel and innovative concept for a short movie. Most movies revolved around severe, thought-provoking themes which addressed social issues such as poverty, class conflict, political tension war and violence.It was a refreshing event filled with youthful exuberance where budding youth of Sri Lanka were given the opportunity to freely express themselves. Anjula Rasanga, a young budding participant in the competition, said that he never had the opportunity to study the art of moviemaking, but always had the passion and hunger to create his own work.The event was indeed a success and with such budding youth being lent a hand to showcase their true potential, we can rest assured that the future of the Sri Lankan cinema is in good hands.
