60 Years of Festivals Meets 60 Years of Independence


The Cannes Film Festival is celebrating its 60th anniversary this year.  Halfway around the world, India is celebrating 60 years of independence.  Put the two anniversaries together, and you have the reason behind India’s selection as the country of focus for the opening weekend of the film festival. 

Over the course of the next three days there will be special screenings of Indian produced films, as well as a various celebrations and panel discussions at the Indian Pavilion.  Cisco was a proud sponsor of the India: From A to Z celebration last night on the Majestic Hotel beach.
