The Ministry of Information and Broadcasting, which functions as a component body of the government, is a key player in the Delhi International Film Festival, ensuring that whenever a film festival abroad requires Indian films to be shown, we participate with Indian programs.
The festival will feature films from over 50 countries in sections such as Indian Showcase, World Cinema, Arab Cinema, NRI Cinema, and Across-Border Cinema. The opening and closing events will be key attractions. This year is a year of focus on Arab cinema and cinema from India's Northeast.
But the most important aspect of the 16th edition is the screening of films related to women's empowerment and social issues related to children.
In previous editions, Canada, Sri Lanka, Indonesia, Morocco, Tunisia, Palestine, Russia, and Israel have been country partners. Eight films screened and awarded at the Delhi International Film Festival have won National Awards, such as Agam and Dada Lakhmi, and four foreign films have been official entries for the Oscars from their respective countries.

DIFF has organized Indian programs in DPRK (North Korea), Sri Lanka, Egypt, Jordan, and Tunisia.

DIFF also supports and guides the Jharkhand and Haryana International Film Festivals, and upcoming film festivals in South India and other countries.
