Countrywide screening of International Inter-University Short Film Festival underway

Under the slogan of "Take Your Camera, Frame Your Dreams", the 14th International Inter-University Short Film Festival (IIUSFF), organised by Dhaka University Film Society (DUFS), in collaboration with the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) and EMK Center, has started its month-long divisional screening all over Bangladesh from Tuesday.

IIUSFF aims to inspire the young university-going filmmakers to showcase their talent to a greater audience. On the 14th edition of the festival, the organizer, DUFS, plans a countrywide screening. The Divisional screening kicked off with Sylhet, followed by Mymensingh, Chittagong, Barisal and Khulna.

A special screening will be held at the KNSI auditorium, in collaboration with the Jum Film Forum.

 Other than Dhaka University IIUSFF will also take place on 6 other university campuses including Jahangirnagar University, Khulna University and Sylhet Agricultural University.

This year, DUFS is also collaborating with several renowned student-running film societies, including the renowned Zahir Raihan Film Society, to host the divisional screening all over the country.

The main event will be held at the TSC premises of Dhaka University, from November 5 to 7. The curtain will drop on this edition of the festival with the closing ceremony at Bashundhara's Star Cineplex on November 8.

IIUSFF received 1147 short films from 91 countries in this year's edition. Out of those, only select films made it to the screening.
