Santipur is a small town situated in Nadia district in northern part of West Bengal, India. This place even do not have their own cinema hall and so they are deprived from watching good films . Local theater groups and their performances are the only medium of entertainment. Historically Santipur has an immense contribution in Bengali literature and culture. Through this festival(SIFF) we would like to promote and celebrate mostly independent and experimental cinema in various ways in our very own town.
