Our mission is simple: to encourage the growth of opportunities for women in important and male-dominated positions in the film industry, to fight gender bias and pave the way for an aspiring new generation of female film makers, through highlighting both their significant and high quality contributions and the films and film industry stakeholders who employ them.

We all know that Hollywood and other film centres around the globe are not exactly very female friendly - especially for women aspiring to senior film making positions that are traditionally and largely frequented by men. Given that women represent more than half the film going audience - and the majority of financial decisions including where entertainment budgets are spent - it is high time this changes, and women are helping shape the character of film to satisfy both the male and female gaze, in addition to having equal opportunity for those producing competitive quality outcomes.
