RECENT ACTIVITIES:
The J.B. College Film Society arranged for the promotion of the Assamese feature film ‘Kaneen,’ based on a work by Sahitya Akademi Award winning novelist Rita Choudhury and directed by Monjul Baruah on 9 March, 2019. A large gathering of students and teachers from various departments, including members of the Campus Film Society, watched a screened preview of the film at the Conference Hall No.-1, and later interacted with members of the production team. The director, Monjul Baruah, introduced members of his cast and crew and spoke about his experiences of film-making as well as his expectations of a healthy reception by cine-goers. He invited the audience to watch the film in large numbers and also to help spread the word about the film, ahead of its release. The presence of ‘Minimi,’ popular Assamese rap singer, who sang one of his compositions during the function, ensured an enthusiastic response from the youthful audience. Dr. Surajit Sharma, Co-chairperson of the Campus Film Society, anchored the programme.
The Campus Film Society, in collaboration with the Assam Film Society organized a screening of Manju Baruah’s award winning Assamese feature film Akashitarar Kathare (2002) at the Conference No. 1, Jagannath Barooah College (Autonomous), Jorhat, on 27th March, 2019, from 12 noon onwards. The screening was attended by a large number of students, teachers and members of both Campus Film Society as well as the Assam Film Society. Dr. Jayanta Madhab Dutta, Secretary, Assam Film Society, spoke by way of introducing the film and hoped that the screening would help create a nuanced understanding of gender issues in general and the girl child in India in particular. Dr. Surajit Sharma, Co-chairperson of the Campus Film Society, said that the aim behind the screening was also to create a greater awareness regarding the potential of cinema as a tool for social transformation. The screening was followed by a lively interaction between the students and the organizers.
FUTURE PLANS

- To encourage students look cinema beyond the entertainment aspect and appreciate film for its genre and style.
- To design short term courses to enrich the curriculum and to meet the market demands.
- To organise a series of seminar on Children film, animation and documentaries.
