Another exhibition titled Dakche Dekho Daktickit (a collection of classic stamps) will be organised and a special anthology to commemorate 125 years of Stan Laurel will be launched during the festival here.
 
Avinash Arun's Marathi film Killa, which revolves around an 11-year-old child undergoing a difficult time coping with the death of his father, has been chosen as the inaugural film for this year’s festival.
 
This year, the KICFF, which will conclude on Dec 29, will pay homage to two of the most versatile geniuses in the film world, Robin Williams and Buster Keaton.
