An Indian Film Festival is being hosted in Gozo by the High Commission of India, in collaboration with Queen Mary University of London.

The Festival will take place between the 11th and 14th of April, at the Queen Mary Campus in Victoria, Gozo.

This unique cultural event celebrates the incredible diversity of one of the world’s largest film industries.

India has grown to become a significant cultural and economic powerhouse. The industry tops the world as the largest producer of films which reflect the country’s diverse cultural and linguistic backgrounds. Indian films are being released in more and more countries and are gaining critical acclaim and recognition.

The growing influence has seen greater cultural exchanges and collaboration between India and other countries. As a result, many Indian filmmakers are collaborating with international studios and artists to produce films that appeal to a global audience.

This is the first Indian Film Festival being held in Gozo. The High Commission of India organised the first ever screening of Award-Winning Film ‘Rocketry – The Nambi Effect’ in March at the Embassy Cinemas, Valletta. The screening was attended by distinguished guests from Government, Diplomatic corps and Friends of India in Malta.

The Film Festival in Gozo will begin with screening of National Award-Winning Film ‘Rocketry – The Nambi Effect’ on Thursday, the 11th of April at 6.00pm and from the 12th to the 14th of April, will be screening a selection of regional films that represent the diverse narratives of India, as shown above.

The Festival seeks to provide entertainment that inspires and also engages audiences on diverse topics. It aims to celebrate and promote the richness of Indian cinema while fostering connections between different communities and cultures.

Entry to the Film Festival is free.
