The New Age Cinemas & Scripts (NACS) is a bi-annual festival with two grand live screening events in a year. We promote filmmakers and screenplay writers locally and globally. We provide an all inclusive platform where you can promote your work, share your thoughts, make friends from the industry.

We screen your films in state of the art theatres, promote your work in every way and have an eager audience ready to watch your masterpiece.

The winners in the screenplay category are given slots where they can read out excerpts from the scripts in front of the audience.

We are intensely committed to promoting independent artists and celebrating their work by giving them access to an eager, intelligent and sensitive audience.
