Thiruvananthapuram: ‘Reena Ki Kahani’, an internationally-acclaimed film by Keralite Shred Shreedhar, will be screened at the ongoing Mumbai International Film Festival (MIFF) on Monday.
The film, which deals realistically with the issue of human trafficking, is being exhibited in the National Competition Section under Animation film category at MIFF, which is taking place from May 29 to June 4. The nine-minute animation film based on the real life of young woman named Reena presents the shocking aspects of human trafficking.

Shreedhar, who produced as well as directed the film, said: “I am honoured for the film to be selected for screening at a prestigious event such as MIFF. Such screenings would hopefully attract mainstream media attention to the heinous crime of human trafficking.”
