The Chaitanya Tamhane directorial, The Disciple, has won the prestigious FIPRESCI award at the 2020 Venice Film Festival. The last Indian film to win the prestigious prize at Venice was Adoor Gopalakrishnan’s “Mathilukal” in 1990. The Disciple is the first Indian film to make the cut since Mira Nair’s “Monsoon Wedding” in 2001, which had won Golden Lion, the highest prize at the festival.
