***************
Rūng Film Festival aims to empower minority communities by supporting filmmakers of color, especially of Pakistani heritage by screening and awarding original works of indie filmmakers. The film festival aspires to play a crucial role in enhancing representation, promoting diversity, connecting creatives, and contributing to a more inclusive and equitable film industry across Texas and beyond.
The Urdu word “rūng” means “color.” Color is our visual interpretation of how light bounces off surfaces. Films can mirror this facet of the visible spectrum by reflecting narratives about people of color, thereby conveying their unique perspectives.
It’s the first time Indie filmmakers of Pakistani heritage will be the focus of a film festival in Houston, Texas. Rūng Film Festival will be more inclusive and equitable in our selection of global films.
We will host panels of industry professionals with invaluable resources for indie filmmakers and related artistic disciplines. Our festival will offer tools and resources to enhance techniques and career opportunities for minority filmmakers.
Winners will be awarded cash and prizes and their films will be showcased at the festival. Other unique selections will also be featured over the 2 days on 3 different screens.
