What we’re about
We're a group of film enthusiasts interested in how labor, gender, caste, and class issues are portrayed in South Asia. We will watch films in multiple languages and from multiple communities and perspectives, to motivate and contextualize solidarities.

Note 1: You are responsible for purchasing your own tickets to each TFF screening you choose to attend. General Admission is $17 and student tickets are $14 for each session. Since Tasveer and TFF support rising filmmakers and provide "a platform for South Asian storytellers from across the globe to showcase their talent", we will not screen the 2025 TFF virtual program as part of SOCSA FC's monthly screenings.
Note 2: SOCSA FC and the event organizers are not affiliated with either Tasveer or the Tasveer Film Festival. This event is simply an opportunity to gather and celebrate the work of South Asian filmmakers!
