HLC or Human Lab Corporation organized the monthly screening of their two popular film festivals namely Virgin Spring Cinefest (VSC) and L’Age d’Or International Arthouse Film Festival recently. The screening took place in the presence of film makers, film critics and other eminent guests.

Shailik Bhaumik, Chairman mentioned that the aim of VSC and LIAFF Film Festivals was to provide a platform to every filmmaker across the world. The objective of this film festival was to support independent filmmakers through reviewing, judging, marketing, distribution networking & helping them to overcome any other obstacles which potentially hinder the artist’s ability to create.

The winning films in these festivals get privately screened every month and evaluated by a team of expert juries in the industry located across the world. All entries do not compete against each other. Instead, entries are judged against a high standard of merit and are scored accordingly. The monthly winners then compete with each other for annual event.

There were films from India, UK, Italy, Canada and many other countries which got screened in the monthly screening like ‘The Shackles of Gender’ Directed by Nikhilesh Dinda (India), ‘A Home History’ Directed by Tomaso Aramini (Italy), ‘Undersee’ Directed by Margie Kelk and Lynn Slater (Canada) to name a few.

In this screening, film maker from Hyderabad, Chilukuri Akash Reddy and Music director Sashank Tirupathi received awards for their film ‘Pure Soul’.
