The 2016 Film Festival Theme:
Mata Dharat (Mother Earth)

The Environment & The Future Of Our Planet

$3,500 in Cash Prizes to be Awarded!

Some of the issues that affect Sikhs in Punjab right now are: smog, the decreasing water table, the farming crisis, pesticides, energy use, lack of mass transit, overpopulation, burning of garbage and many more.

Here's your chance to shine a light on these issues and on the work being done to help save our planet.

We feel that this problem is getting so big that as Sikhs we must pay attention to it now.

What is Your Vision for a Green Future?

The pollution in Punjab, including the sacred city of Amritsar, is so bad that it's on the list for being the worst in the world.

Did you know that the birthplace of Guru Gobind Singh, Patna Sahib, was the 2nd most polluted city in the world?

Patna and Amritsar on top 15 list

That is one of the reasons we want to bring awareness to the environment and Sikhi. Please consider making a film this year.
