Suresh Eriyat is a National Award-winning filmmaker and animator with 400 plus film credits to his name and many awards and accolades, including the prestigious Annecy festival Cristal in 2015, a first for India. He advocates for Animation to be respected as a means to tell stories and not as a technique as commonly misunderstood. His stories come to life from the socio-cultural political environment where people, habits, and culture are ingredients. Indigenous Visual Design is inherent in his ingenious craft of filmmaking.
