Catharsis Film Festival

Every year during Pearl, the Cultural Festival of BPHC, we organize a vibrant, multi-day film festival that celebrates cinema through a plethora of engaging events.

Events

Kaleidoscope

Short Film Competition

A showcase of original short films from across India, where all submissions follow a unifying theme. Creative boundaries are pushed as filmmakers respond to a single idea in their own distinct styles.

Slumber Party

All-Night Screenings

We turn the lecture halls into a cineplex, curating a wide assortment of cinema ranging different genres and languages, screening films all night long.

Panel Discussions

Conversations on Craft

As a collaboration with BITS Embryo, we call renowned filmmakers to our campus for interactive sessions and insightful conversations.

Spoiler Alert

Film Trivia Quiz

A collab with Quiz Club BPHC to find the most knowledgeable film buff on campus.

The Movie Wall

The Wall of Posters

A yearly tradition where we take the wall next to F104 and completely fill it with movie posters, usually following a centralised theme.

Be a Part of It

Whether you want to showcase your short film, attend a workshop, or just experience the thrill of watching films with fellow cinephiles, there's something for everyone at the festival.
