It's our way of seeing that budding filmmakers get a chance to make films that on the one hand can be a showcase of their work and on the other hand can be learning experience. This is why the chosen teams will have access to well known and regarded people from the film industry who can advise and guide them. It's a unique opportunity. For us at the film festival it's our way of planting seeds. We hope that these very filmmakers will, in the future, send in films to the festival and add to the viewing experience and quality of the festival."

Sudhir Mishra, Jury member of the last IDFF, a renowned and critically acclaimed Bollywood Director said, "Digital format of film making is an amazing format that gives you the freedom to shoot things, make a movie, put forth your viewpoint about an issue/agenda etc while overcoming the constraints of inadequate funding or networking etc. It is a wonderful medium for independent voices and certainly more and more people are now open to the idea of digital film making. As a jury member a had very fond memories of the featival, Even the quality of films churned out by amateur film makers / directors such as students or those coming from non- film industry background is very exciting. Festival like IDFF should be promoted so that maximum talent can be discovered."
