DFW South Asian Film Festival

Our Mission:

The Dallas/Fort Worth area is now home to its very own South Asian film festival. DFW SAFF is a four day festival taking place from February 8 to 11, 2018. We will showcase World, U.S. and Texas premieres of features, shorts and documentaries, all chosen to engage, educate and inspire audiences. We have chosen a wide range of films exploring issues that affect South Asians living and working in America, as well as our brothers and sisters back home.

DFW SAFF exists to promote the perspectives and voices of the South Asian community by serving, organizing and advocating South Asian culture in the Greater Dallas Metroplex area through cinema.

Wahid's hearing impairment has made adjusting to the chaotic pace of New York difficult. When he meets Samar at a party, they forge a romantic connection through dance. Things seem to be looking up -- but can he keep the momentum going off the dance floor? The film is a romantic drama based off the director’s experiences being hearing-impaired, utilizing inventive sound design, and choreography to convey the perspective of someone who wears hearing aids.
