Singur International Film Festival 2026

Special Announcement

In its fifth year, the 2026 Singur Film Festival turns international. In addition to its existing national competition section, this year's international, non-competitive short film section will be a great addition to the program. We hope this will bring a broad cultural perspective and a deeper understanding of world cinema to local filmgoers, enthusiasts, and filmmakers.

Consequently, the Singur Film Festival will henceforth be known as the Singur
International Film Festival.
