Gandhara Independent Film Festival 2025, Edition 06 (Online)

STELLAR STORIES, ONE FESTIVAL

#GIFFEST2025 aims to showcase some of the most exceptional films from around the globe. GIFF began with its first virtual edition in 2020 to allow a larger audience to experience a diverse range of films, particularly the cinephiles in Pakistan who were starved of a curated lineup of films which exemplified stellar storytelling. For the last 5 years, GIFF has been providing filmmakers a chance to reach out to a global audience and showcase their talent internationally.

The 2025 edition is imminent, and GIFF is eagerly awaiting the submissions of your films. And we are looking forward to riding the waves of emotions brought forth through your remarkable stories.

ASSERTING WOMEN'S RIGHTS is a project that emerged from the Festival de Málaga, in collaboration with documentary filmmaker Mabel Lozano and the Equal Opportunities Department of the Malaga City Council, as a tool for protest and advocacy. This section was created with the aim of exploring and addressing issues that raise social awareness about women's rights each year.

Launched in 2008, this section of the Festival de Málaga is now in its 19th edition. The project has a dual purpose: to shed light on the injustices that women continue to face in the 21st century simply because they are women, and to promote and support films created by women.
