"Lootera", starring Ranveer Singh and Sonakshi Sinha, has been selected in the 'Narrative Features' section of the festival to be held at Irvine in California from October 17-20.
The 'Documentary Features' section has two Indian entries -- Delhi-based film critic Utpal Borpujari's "Mayong: Myth/Reality" and "Char: The No Man's Island" by Sourav Sarangi.
"Mayong: Myth/Reality" deals with the magical heritage of Mayong, a mystical land of black magic situated in Assam's Morigaon district. This 53-minute documentary film has been done in ethnographic travelogue format.
The other Indian entries are "Lapet" by Anshul Sinha in the 'Short Films' section and "Afterglow" by FTII's Kaushal Oza in the Short Films (Colleges and Universities) section.
