Wench Film Festival is India's First Fantastic Film Festival showcasing films made by women filmmakers inclusive of BIWOC, LGBTQ+ women, and non-binary.
“Women” includes all those who identify as a woman. Period.
Fantastic Films Include Horror, Sci Fi, and Fantasy!
WFF supports, encourages and celebrates women and non-binary storytellers by not only providing a platform to showcase their craft but also through film screenings, discussions, and professional development opportunities.
In Edition 3 we hope to continue being a Hybrid property like Edition 2 with a bigger focus on growing a thriving and engaged community.
The festival will be held on March 10-12, 2023 Physical (Location will be Revealed closer to the date) and March 10-20, 2023 Virtual on MovieSaints.
(PLEASE NOTE THAT THE PHYSICAL PART OF THE FESTIVAL CAN CHANGE DUE TO THE COVID SITUATION. PLEASE CHECK HERE OR ON OUR WEBSITE www.wenchfilmfestival.com FOR UPDATES)
WFF Will ONLY Screen films Directed by Women and Non-Binary Filmmakers. We do however have a special category for Male Filmmakers who have directed films with a central female plot.
Films completed after March 2019 are eligible.
