The 2nd edition of the prestigious Norway Tamil Film Festival (NTFF) is to be held at Oslo City, the capital of Norway from April 20-25 2011. This film fest is being presented by VN Music Dreams and the very purpose of this festival is to bring Tamil films to the notice of the international audience and holding it in Norway adds an advantage to that.
Several Tamil films lately are unique and set a benchmark and this film festival makes sure that such films come under the limelight and win them the deserved praise.
