WHAT IS WOW?

WORLD OF WOMEN FILM FESTIVAL
Presented by Women in Film and Television NSW ( WIFT NSW )

The World of Women - WOW Film Festival is a short film festival that promotes and awards the talents of women directors, producers, writers, editors and cinematographers in the Australian film industry and internationally. It is a festival that offers emerging and established filmmakers the opportunity to screen short works giving a thematic perspective of ... “seeing the world through the eyes of women”.

Women in Film and Television NSW ( WIFT NSW ) is committed to improving the status of women, both on and off the screen, by supporting and advancing women working in the film, television and related screen industries. We are a membership based not-for-profit organisation.

WIFT NSW is part of a global organisation, Women in Film and Television International (WIFTI), which provides a foundation for global co-operation as well as a public voice representing and unifying our members worldwide.
