All the selected films for TNFF 2018 will have subtitles in English. The films portray stories of Nepali people from different regions in Nepal and also from the diaspora. The program’s power lies in the ability to beautifully weave together joy,humor and loss in lives of the characters portrayed in the films. TNFF is thrilled to bring another festival of Nepali films with something for all.
