Nepal has banned the screening of three Sri Lankan films at the Film South Asia (FSA), a film festival focused on documentaries, upon a request of the Sri Lankan government, an official statement said Thursday.
The FSA had scheduled to screen Broken, The Story of One and No Fire Zone — all by Sri Lankan filmmakers — at the festival that kicked off Thursday, but was forced to pull all of them out after Sri Lankan government urged to stop the screenings, Xinhua reported citing an FSA statement. (IANS)
