Birmingham Indian Film Festival 2021

Birmingham Indian Film Festival is back for 2021, bringing you the very best of new indie and classic films from the Indian subcontinent and diaspora. The festival runs from Thursday 17th June to Sunday 4th July and as official partners of the 7th edition of BIFF, we’d like to share with you the programme of in-cinema screenings and online screenings at LoveLIFFathome.com.

BOOK HERE for the Opening Gala Evening on Friday 25th June, 7pm, at MAC Birmingham with the documentary film
WOMB (Women of My Billion), followed by live Q&A with Srishti Bakshi

NEWS UPDATE, Don’t miss Srishti Bakshi, lead of WOMB in our Chai & Chat & Cinema, 20 June 3pm

Srishti Bakshi embarks on a monumental journey – walking almost 3800km over 240 days, from Kanyakumari in the south to Kashmir in the North, along the way meeting and learning first hand about the experiences of many women from all corners of India. 

WOMB is a poignant and heart warming documentary exploring the social and political issues faced by women of today’s India. It’s also a unique testament to seemingly insurmountable challenges in these unprecedented times and the everyday ‘sheroes’ who are battling to overcome them.

BIFF is working closely with cinemas to ensure the safety and comfort of audiences as it showcases the best in new independent South Asian cinema in over 16 South Asian languages.
