A Brief History

About Us

We welcome not only films made by female directors, but any works from long or short, documentary or narrative, if in any way they concern women in our festival. We seek movies that focus on women's issues, problems, and concerns, or in any way, center around their sadness, happiness, success, failure, and ,overall, their world- films where the leading character or one of the important characters is a woman, narrating the life of women today anywhere in the world. We are not looking for a specific theme in films; the fact that the filmmaker's perspective on their subject is fresh is sufficient to enter our festival, whether it is a film about the hardships of working women in poor countries or about the daily life of a middle-class woman in developed countries. The film can be directed by a woman or a man, but addressing issues related to women makes our priority. Whether they feature the difficulties of a female student's life or the hopes of an 80-year-old woman, works that we are always looking for have a fresh look at the issue of women or ,even with recurrent themes, deal with an issue still remaining full of freshness and charm.
