The 121st edition of World Film Manifestation Programme (WFMP) will be held today in the auditorium of Bangladesh National Museum in the capital, reports UNB.
Dhaka University Film Society (DUFS) and the National Museum will jointly organize the Film Manifestation Programme.
WFMP was initiated by DUFS to provide film-lovers with an opportunity to watch classic films from different countries of the world in big screen.
This edition of the programme will feature three silent films from diverse countries of origin and three directors who contributed greatly in the making of not only the history of silent films but the very basis of film history itself.
