For crystallizing a turning point in a country’s colonial past with meditative Images and a strong metaphor evocative of cinema’s magical powers’

The NETPAC JURY Award

If... you are watching Bioscope, by Madhusudhanan, then it might happen to you that the film watches you: watches how you are sitting in the cinema and how you want to understand the world. With grandiose images, this film indulges in telling us the story of cinema in such a way as if it was really the story of our own existence. A genuinely unique item, this film work.

Dr. Michael Koetz, Festival Director,
International FilmFestival Mannheim-Heidelberg

"For the abïlity to combine Indian culture and tradition with modern cinema art, for creating fascinating artistic images on screen and original implementation of the illusion that's cinema is magic which captures life and saves us from death and oblivion.'
