ABOUT FILM FESTIVAL:
An annual event to celebrate diverse cultures through cinema
Maryland – The Nepal America Film Society, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization based in Maryland, is excited to announce the dates for the 2026 Nepal America International Film Festival (NAIFF). The festival will take place in Maryland from Thursday, June 25 to Sunday, June 28, 2026.
We are now accepting film submissions from around the world, including feature films, documentaries, animations, experimental works, and shorts. The festival will feature a diverse selection of films from Nepal, South Asia, the USA, and beyond. Special sections will include screenings from the Global Peace Film Festival in Florida, as well as a spotlight on films from Washington, D.C., Maryland, and Virginia in the DMV Close-up Section.
NAIFF’s mission is to unite people from diverse cultures through the power of cinema. Since its inception in 2017, the festival has become a vital platform for global filmmakers, including those of Nepali origin, as well as for filmmakers from the USA and the broader international diaspora.
NAIFF warmly invites filmmakers from around the world to submit their films.
