While attending the closing ceremony of the 51st International Film Festival of India (IIFI) jury chairman Pablo Cesar lavished praise on all the films that competed this year and said, "We are very happy with the wide and varied themes showcased in the films selected for the festival, especially those that make us reflect on individual freedoms, rights of children and all the people of this world, empowerment of women and memories of things that some people have done which we are sure we never want to happen again. Thank you IFFI for selection of films which are rich in content and aesthetic search," albeit via a pre-recorded video message given the safety norms that were stringently implemented by the festival due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.
Congratulations to all the winners.
