Berlin Film Festival is counted at the three biggest festival in the world. If Riya wins the title, she will be the third Indian who will get this honor in the last 75 years.

Satyajit Ray and Nagesh Kukunur of India have been two directors whose films have won the title in Berlin. Riya’s film is placed in the class of Generation KPLUS, which addresses children and youth. Let us tell you that 28 -year -old Riya is currently doing Masters in script writing and direction at the world famous Columbia University in New York.

Let us tell you that Riya’s work has been introduced in many other big film festivals. A music video made by him ‘I Wanna Be Like You’ was chosen the best video at the Okalland Film Festival. Not only this, Riya was also the advisor to the film named Madhu, who made a splash at the Rotterdam Film Festival.

The Ruse film is about three girls aged 10 to 12 years, who are practicing dancing in the house alone in the monsoon afternoon. While practicing, she applies earrings and lipstick and feels young in them. This feeling is expressed only with eyes and expressions. The dialogue in the film is negligible. Just the voice and silence of the atmosphere goes home in the heart of the audience.
