About MAMI Mumbai Film Festival and Year Round Programme

MAMI Mumbai Film Festival, organized by the Mumbai Academy of Moving Image (MAMI), has brought the best of contemporary world cinema and talent to the city of Mumbai since 1997. With its new expanded vision to spotlight South Asian and South Asian diaspora filmmakers, MAMI becomes the hub for South Asia, discovering and connecting emerging talent to the worldwide festival ecosystem. Along with celebrating cinematic excellence and bringing joy to our audiences, we aim to facilitate the exchange of ideas and provide easy access to information related to filmmaking, funding, film distribution, business opportunities, and strategic marketing support for films and filmmakers. The Academy also conducts a robust Year Round Programme that acts as a hub for creators and cinephiles through screenings, networking opportunities, access to labs and workshops for skill development, masterclasses, and, very importantly, creating a community of cinema lovers.

MAMI Year Round Programme (YRP) is a series of year-round activities that keep our members connected with all things cinema. The MAMI Members, a huge community of cinephiles, aspiring and working filmmakers, technicians, and new audiences interested in films from around the world, can access the programme that is focused on building cinema-watching communities. We invite our members to watch, discuss, and connect over films from across the world and from the MAMI archives. The Year Round Programme also brings in specially designed programmes throughout the year that are designed to enhance awareness and conversations around cinema from South Asia and across the world.
