SeaDoc has partnered with Tasveer Film Festival & Market to host the Tasveer Market Opening Reception. The Film Market opens with the oldest format we know: tea, something good to eat, and people talking.

Come early, meet the room, and find the person you were hoping to run into before the keynotes begin. Most of the week’s best conversations start right here.

Included with your badge. Reservation required, so please book your spot in advance.

Tasveer is North America’s premier South Asian film gathering and the world’s first and only Oscar® qualifying South Asian film festival, headquartered in Seattle, Washington.

Held every October, the Tasveer Film Festival brings six days of bold cinema from across South Asia and its diaspora. South Asia encompasses Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Maldives, Nepal, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, and Tibet, and the communities that carry those stories worldwide.

The festival is where filmmakers meet their audience. Screenings, post-film Q&As that run long, workshops, and panels that fill the rooms between films. We believe cinema sparks ideas and unites communities, and that through storytelling we build a deeper understanding of one another.
