In a major triumph for India at the 77th Cannes Film Festival, Chidananda S. Naik’s “Sunflowers Were the First Ones to Know…” won the first prize of La Cinef today here.
The Mysuru doctor-turned-film-maker made the film at the end of his one-year course in the television wing of Pune’s Film and Television Institute of India.
“Sunflowers…” is based on a Kannada folk tale about an old woman who steals a rooster.
