MAMI Year Round Programme

Welcome to our Year Round Programme (YRP), a series of year-round activities that keep you connected with all things cinema. MAMI Members, a large community of cinephiles, aspiring and working filmmakers, technicians, and new audiences interested in films from around the world, can access the programme that is focused on building cinema watching communities.

We invite our members to watch, discuss, and connect over films from across the world and from the MAMI archives.

We also curate specially designed programmes throughout the year designed to enhance awareness and conversations around cinema from South Asia and across the world

MAMI Select: Filmed on iPhone is an initiative that empowers filmmakers to push the boundaries of technology and innovation in film.

The mission of the programme is to champion MAMI alumni. As part of MAMI Select: Filmed on iPhone, five talented filmmakers have harnessed their creativity and expertise to create films using the iPhone 15 Pro Max and M3 MacBook Pro.

Under the mentorship of acclaimed filmmakers Vishal Bhardwaj, Vikramaditya Motwane, and Rohan Sippy, these five filmmakers have embarked on a cinematic journey, to create high-quality films with the power of clutter-breaking technology.

The films premiered in April 2024 at a special theatrical screening, and are available to view on MAMI’s YouTube channel.
