Festival that spotlights diverse womxn filmmakers across the globe will be held virtually from December 4 to 10, 2020
LOS ANGELES - Californer -- Female Voices Rock is bringing its annual film festival, Female Voices Rock Film Festival, to virtual attendees from Friday, December 4, to Thursday, December 10, 2020. The seven-day festival line up will feature filmmaker panels, creative conversations and workshops, digital networking, and a selection of short films showcasing womxn voices from across the globe.
Female Voices Rock Founder and Executive Director Catherine Delaloye says, "Hosting this year's festival virtually opens up a great door of opportunity for our filmmakers to expand their audiences, creating an even larger platform to uplift these diverse voices." She continues, "With the hardships that 2020 brought us, we wanted to carry forward with the festival to create the necessary space for creatives of all backgrounds, ages, races, and at different points in their careers, to share their stories, and dedicate this year's festival to keeping us all connected during these times."
Over 70 films have been selected, each depicting unique stories told in the womxn's perspective, from coming-of-age challenges to the exploration of the 'family' unit to dynamic tales of racism, violence, and inequality; each competing in 11 categories that span from narrative to documentary. The film jury consists of respected womxn leaders, creators, and storytellers in the entertainment industry including Emmy Award-winning filmmaker and Producer Eva Lipman (JIM: THE JAMES FOLEY STORY, DEVIL AT THE CROSSROADS, BECOMING WARREN BUFFET), Founder and CEO of Tandem Pictures Julie Christeas (BLACK BEAR, THE SURROGATE, THE EYES OF MY MOTHER) and MXN Entertainment Manager and Producer Tracy Koplusky (THE BROKEN HEARTS GALLERY, QUEEN & SLIM, TULLY).
