Urta Lahore – South Asian Film Festival 2025

Urta Lahore — A Festival of South Asian Cinema

Cinema is crossing borders again — and this September, it’s landing right here in Lahore.

We know you’ve been curious about what’s coming up in OLO’s festival season, and we’re so excited to finally share it with you!

TL;DR: Urta Lahore (Sept 19–21, Annemarie-Schimmel-Haus) is a space for South Asian stories, Pakistani shorts, and critical conversations — carrying forward the legacy of Travelling Film South Asia. Think screenings, discussions, food stalls, and spontaneous exchanges that last long after the credits roll.
