On her maiden voyage, the WWBFF sails the globe to bring you a meticulously curated selection of powerful stories by and about women.

This in-person event, held at Queen Mary University of London, opens the curtain on bold female moviemakers and compelling narratives about women who are not afraid to cross physical as well as mental boundaries.

From thought-provoking documentaries to captivating storytelling, this festival showcases the incredible talent and inspiration that women bring into the film industry.

Come and join them on their journeys!

Immerse yourself in their rich cinematic worlds, ask them about their experiences and above all, support their brave contribution to the magic of the movies.
