Mission Statement

Join Our Creative Journey

2nd - Jalgaon International Film Festival 2025 rewards the best and most outstanding project / films from around the globe. We consider the art of filming an essential component of our lives and encourage works that use powerful narration in order to create a unique vision. The cinema as a tool of fiction relies on an easy, central assertion: to tell is to feel empathic. There is no story to tell without the "Other". Because the audience empathizes with the characters, within the vast universe of all the stories that can be invented, he/she can experience those patterns of emotions that otherwise would be lost. Jalgaon Short & International Film Festival dedicated to finding those remarkable works that may otherwise be overlooked or snubbed. We accept short films of all genres. Our mission is to encourage and support filmmakers throughout the world in order to provide the recognition they deserve. Every submission can also add additional categories, increasing the chances to become multi-award-winning. The overall winner will be awarded during the ceremony at the stunning city of Jalgaon in oct 2025
