Toronto International Women Film Festival celebrates female voices and talents working in media as women in film. Every edition, the Festival focuses on female driven stories, independent female directors, producers, writers, actresses, cinematographers, editors, and all female artists contributing to the language of cinema as women in film.
The festival also selects films created by all genders from all over the world from various backgrounds, cultures and traditions dealing with women in society. Films created by male directors about female characters are qualified to submit to the festival as well.
The online fest is sponsored by Toronto Film magazine and has online screening options through Toronto Film Channel. It is important to recognize talented female artists who have dedicated their life to working in media.
