The Bollywood USA International Film Festival is a prestigious event that celebrates the vibrant and diverse world of Indian cinema in the United States. It serves as a platform for filmmakers, actors, and industry professionals to showcase their work and connect with audiences from around the globe. The festival showcases a wide range of films, including feature films, documentaries, short films, and music videos, all highlighting the rich cultural heritage of Bollywood. Through this festival, it promotes cross-cultural understanding and appreciation for Indian cinema on an international scale.

From the creators of the Depth of Field International Film Festival, Docs Without Borders Film Festival, and the WRPN.tv Women’s International Film Festival (among a few other successful festivals) and, under the umbrella of the WRPN.tv Network, we bring you the Bollywood USA International Film Festival (BUIFF)

Don’t forget feedback, the one element most festivals ignore.

We don't just charge you a fee and ignore you if you're rejected.

With us, rejected films have access to feedback, the one element most festivals ignore.

Instead of paying submission fees and getting nothing in return,
EVERYONE who submits to BUIFF will receive EITHER OF TWO benefits:

Either 1) your film is already competition caliber and becomes an Official Selection,

OR 2): You’ll receive a letter outlining exactly what prevents it from being accepted.

If you can make corrections, you can resubmit for FREE.

First-time filmmakers: when have you ever received a letter and had the festival explain WHY your film was rejected?

Much less let you resubmit for FREE, even the following season (In case you did not have enough time to fix it)
