How many films will be screened in the ‘Films from BRICS’ showcase at the 57th IFFI?
- A.15
- B.18
- C.21
- D.25
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is 21. The curated BRICS package at the 57th International Film Festival of India carries twenty-one films from the member countries of the grouping, chosen around questions of democracy, freedom, identity, history and contemporary global concerns. Options A and B are smaller figures that match no announced count for this showcase. Option D, 25, is a familiar number at the same festival but belongs to a different section altogether: twenty-five feature films were selected for Indian Panorama 2026, so candidates who mix the two sections lose the mark here. Keep the pairing straight in revision, with 21 for the BRICS package and 25 feature films plus 20 non-feature films for Indian Panorama, and remember that the festival as a whole will screen over 150 international films from 86 countries.
