For over 23 years, Tasveer has been a driving force for social change, using South Asian films, art, and storytelling to challenge misrepresentation and inspire truth-telling.

What started as a small film screening in 2002 has grown into the only Oscar®-qualifying South Asian film festival in the world!

2025 was a bumper year for us:

✅ Tasveer acquired the historic Ark Lodge Cinemas in Columbia City as its new permanent home!

✅ Hosted 21th anniversary of the Tasveer Film Festival & Market (TFFM) in our new home

Brought 20th edition of Tasveer Film Festival where we showcased 100+ films
Launched Second edition of Tasveer Film Market which created productive industry connections, with $20,000 granted to 2 filmmakers
5th year of Tasveer Film Fund where we granted $140,000 to 4 filmmakers

✨ Join us in shaping a more inclusive, just, and artistically vibrant world. Register today and be part of the movement!
