Since 2001, we’ve been honored to screen films of all shapes and sizes, made by amazing female storytellers, all while welcoming so many filmmakers who fell in love with Rochester, NY.

We could not have continued without so many incredibly supportive staff, volunteers, sponsors, event venues, community partners, and ticket buyers like you.

In a time of so much recent change, we are excited to transition from a yearly festival to a monthly series that will debut later this year, hosted by our longtime friends and partners, The Little Theatre

Thank you for your passion and unwavering support of this festival. We have been proud to help move the needle toward increased equality for women in the filmmaking industry, but there is still much work to be done in recognizing their talent and capability. We hope you will help continue this important mission.

Stay tuned for more updates in the near future both here and also from The Little.

Kate Herrmann, Executive Director
