Dhaka International Mobile Film Festival (DIMFF), an outreach programme under the Media and Journalism Department of the University of Liberal Arts Bangladesh (ULAB), successfully concluded its three-day celebration of cinema, creativity and youth engagement with vibrant festivities and star-studded appearances.

The carnival featured more than 40 stalls showcasing a wide range of products, including jewellery, fragrances, food, clothing, home décor items, makeup and henna. The lively marketplace, complemented by colourful décor and enthusiastic participation, created an engaging atmosphere for students and visitors throughout the event.

A variety of interactive activities were arranged for spectators of all ages, including Balloon Shooter, Nagor Dola, Ghuraina Chobi (360-degree rotation) and Gaaner Ashor. These attractions added to the festive spirit and made the carnival a memorable experience over the three days.

One of the major highlights of the event was the exclusive CinemaGhor sessions, which welcomed prominent figures from the Bangladeshi film industry. On the final day, a screening and discussion of Noor were held with actor Arifin Shuvoo, actress Jannatul Ferdous Oishee, associate producer and sound designer Ripon Nath, and associate producer Raffael Ahsan.

During the previous two days, special screenings and discussions of films such as Delupi and Barir Naam Shahana offered valuable insights into filmmaking and storytelling, inspiring students and aspiring creatives through direct engagement with industry professionals.

The successful conclusion of the carnival reaffirmed DIMFF’s commitment to nurturing cinematic culture, creativity and industry engagement among students and emerging filmmakers, while strengthening its role as a platform for meaningful dialogue between academia and the film industry.
