The Himalaya Film Festival connects you with the captivating people, culture, nature and politics of the Himalayan region, and offers you the virtual opportunity to experience the Himalayas.

The Himalaya Film Festival offers a fascinating selection of 31 films, featuring breathtaking images from Bhutan, India, Nepal, and Tibet. The films highlight dramatic landscapes, heartwarming scenes of everyday life, cultural gems and colorful religious festivals.

The Himalaya Film Festival is an established yearly cultural event throughout Europe. The founder and organizer of the annual festival is Glenn Krishna Mitrasing, MD.

"Audience numbers continue to rise every year. It's no small achievement that since the festival's inception in Amsterdam in 2003, the event has traveled to Tokyo, and now to the United States," explains Mitrasing. "The program will be divided into sessions of two or three films, each of which focus on a common theme. The films will be screened at the Quad Cinema in Greenwich Village, at the cultural heart of Manhattan. The Quad is the perfect venue for the first American screenings, as its audience is made up of passionate moviegoers eager to see the best in independent, foreign and documentary films."

Come witness the people living on top of the world and find out what inspires them.
