UK Asian Film Festival – the world’s longest running South Asian film festival – has unveiled the full programme of its 27th edition and it is an outstanding. Running at venues across London, Leicester and Coventry Ukaff opens Thursday May 1st and runs through Sunday 11th May.
This year’s “Longing and Belonging” theme will celebrate cinema that explores one of the most profound human experiences—the search for connection, identity and purpose. In every corner of the world, people grapple with feelings of longing—the ache for love; the pull of home; the need for acceptance; and the pursuit of meaning. Through the lens of cinema, these universal desires come to life in stories of displaced immigrants; journeys of self-discovery; quests for love; and the tension between tradition and modernity. As society moves forward, cinema remains a powerful tool for change—one that sparks conversations, amplifies voices and builds empathy.
