The men's corner
The MAMI Film Festival began with an inevitable reference to the ongoing #MeToo wave that has hit the Indian film industry. In her opening speech, festival director Anupama Chopra said this year, the festival is about "conflicting emotions" after the film body dropped several film from the line-up in solidarity with #MeToo survivors: ""It (#MeToo movement) has forced all of us to look within and ask 'what could I have done differently? What changes now?' We come to this edition with conflicted emotions. In solidarity with the movement, we decided to exclude certain films from the festival," PTI quoted Ms Chopra as saying.
The 20th edition of the film festival opened yesterday and will be held till November 1.
