UK Asian Film Festival

Presented by Tongues on Fire and supported by BFI, the longest-running South Asian film festival in the world is back for its 26th edition this spring. It’s set to host its opening gala at the BFI IMAX for the first time ever, with a premier of the film Minimum, a directorial debut about the tumultuous beginnings of an arranged marriage, and closing night will feature a screening of Lord Curzon Ki Haveli, a film about four South Asians who meet at an unplanned dinner, at the Regent Street Cinema. There’s also an Emerging Curators Gala as part of the festival’s LGBTQ+ strand, as well as a screening of Amu to mark 40 years since the anti-Sikh riots in India, plus loads more.
