The 21st Tasveer Film Festival & Market (the only Oscar® qualifying South Asian film festival in the world!) Returns to Seattle Oct. 13-18.

For 21 years, Tasveer has been where South Asian cinema finds its audience.

From Oct. 13 to 18, 2026, the 21st annual edition brings together the Film Festival and the Film Market, amplifying stories from across South Asia, Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Maldives, Nepal, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, and Tibet, and the diaspora that carries them worldwide.

Tasveer Film Festival brings six days of bold cinema, post-screening conversations, and workshops and panels that fill the rooms between films.
