Women have been a force in wild land firefighting since 1942. Still, they remain outnumbered 10-to-1 on the fire lines and do double duty battling both the infernos that scorch public land, and the smouldering embers of discrimination, misogyny and sexual harassment that continue to suppress their voices. Told in cinema verite, ANCHOR POINT chronicles the 2019 fire season through the eyes of two women, generations apart, as they push to change the culture of wild land fire. Directed by Holly Tuckett. Book your tickets to ANCHOR POINT part of the Sunday November 29th Session of Sydney Women’s International Film Festival 2021 from www.SWIFF.org.au #womeninfilm #supportwomeninfilm #femalefirefighter #femalefirefighters #firefighter #firefighters #bushfires #bushfiresaustralia #americanfirefighters #feminisn #feminist #equality #jointhefight

Sydney Women’s International Film Festival - SWIFF

SWIFF is an event where the creativity of self-identified female film-makers is celebrated and supported, all in the heart of one of world's most creative and iconic cities.

There is a recognised ongoing lack of gender diversity in the film industry - we aren't seeing enough stories about women, told through the eyes of women. SWIFF is a new not-for-profit organisation conceived to tackle this deficit with a new platform for women in film. Our volunteer team is dedicated to improving audience access to women's films and promoting the creativity of local and international female film-makers alike.

Our two-day festival will include programming of outstanding entries, post-screening Q&A with film-makers, industry networking opportunities and opening/closing social events.
