Special workshops would be organised where film school students will get the chance to interact with filmmakers and others, said actor Nitish Bharadwaj, who is on the steering committee of IFFI 2014.
Goa was recently announced as the permanent venue for the IFFI. This year the festival would be held from November 20 to 30.
