Art, Artist, Industry and Community by Sooraj Kenoth, Chamba Swathanthra Cinema Project

ok, ready

Actually, art is something which has multiple aspects.

So, art is representative of a culture

or it has great power to influence people's thoughts,

whether it is writing, reading, book or cinema.

Now, cinema is the art form of new generation

this art form can have huge social impact.

If we wonder what the problem with this is,

we have made many laws which claim to protect artists.

such as copyright laws .

But it has now come to change into a system

that protects the middleman.

But it has even gone to a far greater level

of middleman deciding what cinema should be,

ie. they would do only what gives them money returns.

We can now find people

who are ready to make a movie, write a story

or use their pen

to portray or impose something as our culture

if a multi-national corporation or a mafia set

is ready to support them financially.

But cinema is something that comes from inside

ie, something that arises from our community,

not something to be done individually.

So to spread the message of such a community

to herald the presence

or strengthen such a community existing in our place,

which is based on values of Swathanthra Software,

is the message we would like to convey with this movie.
