About the Indian Film Festival of Los Angeles (IFFLA)

Founded in 2002, the Indian Film Festival of Los Angeles (IFFLA) has brought to Los Angeles audiences the most innovative independent films coming out of India, South Asia and its diasporas, in a vibrant program comprising features and shorts, including narrative, documentary and animated works. Starting in 2023, IFFLA will foray into year round programming, with the goal to collaborate with partners to bring original special programs, such as retrospectives and spotlights on exciting emerging auteurs, as well as lively industry events for professional development, mentorship, and networking. IFFLA aims to redouble on its two-decade reputation as a vital hub for fostering an important dialogue among the most original South Asian storytellers and the international film industry at large.
