MUMBAI: The 28th Busan International Short Film Festival has presented Abhay Kumar’s ‘Just That Sort of a Day‘ with the Renault Samsung prize for best short film.

The award comprises a trophy and cash prize of 5,000,000 KRW (approx. Rs 200,000).

Written and directed by Abhay Kumar, it is a 14-minute film that peeps into the lives of random characters, with their doubts, quirks and misgivings. As these characters hang in a timeless space, they gaze at the universe through letters, galaxies, parapets and fishbowls.

The festival was held in Busan, South Korea, from 25-29 May. The film had recently won the best short film award at the 11th New York Indian Film Festival.
