The Women International Film Festival (WIFF) will present the opportunity for women to network, screen the films they’ve made, and appreciate the accomplishments of fellow women, while at the same time, bringing awareness by highlighting women’s multifaceted roles in the society. The Women International Film Festival is the first of its kind in Pakistan where it caters to women specifically. The films and documentaries created as a result of the workshops, screenings, and other participatory activities are accumulated and screened at our film festival, which is held on an annual basis.
