Austin-based nonprofit Indie Meme will present the ninth annual Indie Meme Film Festival, featuring more than 30 international films from over 13 countries spanning more than 17 languages, solidifying Austin's reputation as a hub for cultural exchange and a true film capital.

With a commitment to promoting Texas filmmakers sharing South Asian stories, the festival will include a Local Shorts Showcase featuring conversations with several regional storytellers in their programming. Additionally, the festival’s roster includes several international premieres, an array of international shorts, and a lineup of award-winning feature films, the majority of which are created by female and global filmmakers, that bring socially relevant cinema from India, Pakistan, Nepal, Myanmar and more to the United States.

The film lineup will explore currently relevant themes such as women's rights, immigration, childhood trauma, and family dynamics, as well as other human interest stories centered around consumerism, environmentalism and global issues.
