A two-day long documentary film workshop was organised by Prodigal Ministry at Tamei, Tamenlong district under the sponsorship of TRI (Tribal Research Institute) Imphal from August 14 to 15, 2014 .
The workshop was conducted by award winning filmmaker Oinam Doren and A.Bikeshwor Sharma, an FTII graduate in digital cinematography.
In all 73 film enthusiasts participated in the intense interactive sessions combined with film screenings.
Dee Abonmai, General Secretary of Prodigal Ministry, said that the workshop was organised with the objective of developing the local filmmaking talents of Liangmai community.

Abonmai observed that though he himself has produced more than 9 films, he often felt handicapped due to lack of professional training. It may be noted here Tamei which is located 118 Kms from Imphal has one of the worst road connectivity and mobile network services in the state.
In spite of belonging to a small community and presence of no theatre hall in Tamei town, Liangmai film enthusiasts have continued to make films that are distributed only through DVDs.
while profits are never a part of any film venture.
So, they felt the need to tell their stories to a larger world.
The film workshop which was conducted for the first time in the town closed with the screening of the acclaimed feature film from Mizoram 'Khwanglung run' set in 1860's in the Lushai Hills which experience the tragic attack on Khwanglung village.
