ABOUT FILM FESTIVAL:
An annual event to celebrate diverse cultures through cinema
Nepal-America Film Society (NAFS), a 501(c)(3) non-profit based in Maryland, proudly announces the 7th Nepal-America International Film Festival (NAIFF). Taking place in Maryland from June 20 to June 23, 2024, we're now accepting diverse film submissions worldwide—feature films, documentaries, animations, experimental pieces, and shorts.
The festival presents a diverse array of films, encompassing features, documentaries, animations, experimental works, and shorts from Nepal, America, South Asia, and around the world. Highlights include films from the Global Peace Film Festival Florida in the Special Sidebar Section and a focus on films from Washington DC, Maryland, and Virginia in the DMV Close-up Section.
NAIFF's objective is to unite individuals from diverse cultures through the medium of cinema. Since 2017, the festival has firmly established itself as a platform for filmmakers with Nepali backgrounds, American filmmakers, and international diaspora filmmakers.
NAIFF warmly welcomes filmmakers worldwide to submit their films.
The film festival's jury committee, consisting of national and international film experts, will be responsible for selecting award recipients among the screened films. The committee announces various awards during the Closing and Award ceremony of the festival. Each participating film will be acknowledged and recognized by the film festival.
