WELCOME!
UP INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL, VARANASI (Kaashi)
At the banks of Holi River Ganges (Ganga)
14-04-2022 to 16-04-2022
The purpose of having “UP INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL” in India is to give Expression of Freedom to those feature and short filmmakers who are looking for International exposure.
India is a fast developing country in the world with its multiple cultures, traditions, and spirituality. U.P. (Uttar Pradesh) is the largest state in the country of India.
We, the “UP INTERNATIONAL FESTIVAL” are going to present the art, culture, traditions and the places of tourism interest in the U.P. to the World community through the organization of a 3-days International Film Festival in Varanasi (Kaashi).
A number of people have dedication and passion to produce feature and short films but because of the scarcity of funds and resources, they are unable to find any platform to display their feature and short films. We, the ‘UP International Film Festival’ are going to provide them an International platform to present their unique works to the Global audiences. The “UP International Film Festival” is being organised at Varanasi in India during the dates 14-04-2022 to 16-04-2022.
Once the Film Festival is over, we are going to host one days visit of all the National/International attendees of this Film Festival to Lord Shiva (Kaashi Vishwanath) Temple, Sankat Mochan Temple, Kaal Bhairav Temple, Sarnath Buddha Temple, special Ganga Aarti, Vindhyachal Temple and Prayagraj Sangam.
Come and See India…
