Best feature director – Geet Gawai a cultural legacy. Best feature film – Geet Gawai a cultural legacy.  Best inspiration film – Life is a karma. This is the number of distinctions that the Mauritian director has won during the AIFF. He does not hide his satisfaction: “It is an honor for me to have been able to carry the Mauritian flag so high in international festivals. My satisfaction is even greater, because I was also awarded for The Truth – The evolution of Gandhi at the prestigious JIFF,” explains this high school teacher.

Works of Director Varun Nunkoo
Varun has other projects for this year.

For 2022, the director is already working on two projects: “The first one is a music video for Valentine’s Day. In addition, I am also working on The hidden bracelet – a horror series of 4 to 5 episodes. I want to get Mauritians used to following locally produced series. Other creations will follow if I get financial support.
