JFF Untitled by Jagran Film Festival (JFF)
The Jagran Film Festival (JFF) has launched the JFF Untitled, an initiative to identify, appreciate, and present emerging filmmaking talent. This program provides aspiring directors, writers, actors, editors, and cinematographers with the opportunity to assemble teams, conceive, and produce an original short film, facilitated by the JFF Grant.
Beyond a mere competition, JFF Untitled serves as a vital platform for showcasing talent and vision. The motto as mentioned below encapsulates its essence:
