World Student Film Festival (WSFF) - Jaipur, India

World Student Cinema Summit (WSCS)
26 – 28 August 2025 | Jaipur, Rajasthan, India

The World Student Film Festival is a global celebration dedicated to students studying cinema from around the world. It offers a unique platform for emerging filmmakers to showcase their work, engage in discussions, and contribute to the evolving landscape of world cinema. Recognizing the absence of such festivals in India, this initiative has been launched to fill that gap. Alongside the festival, the World Student Cinema Summit (WSCS) will also be held annually, fostering interaction, learning, and collaboration among student filmmakers. Jaipur is excited to welcome these young visionaries who are shaping the future of cinema.
