The Kerala High Court has declined to grant interim relief to the Kerala State Chalachitra Academy over seven documentaries withheld from its documentary festival, observing that, prima facie, there is no arbitrariness or unreasonableness in withholding seven of 346 films, and has listed the case for November 13.
The Supreme Court Today (Oct 22) permitted activist Teesta Setalvad to travel between November 14 and November 24 to attend the International Documentary Film Festival in Amsterdam. Setalvad had received an invitation from the organisers to attend the festival in her capacity as producer of the documentary film Cycle Mahesh.
