Mission & Objective
The San Diego Women Film Foundation empowers young and grown women through positive
media. The Film Foundation exposes the public to film and promotes women
filmmakers' work through an annual film festival, the San Diego Women's Film Festival, and year round Film Screening Program. By educating high school
girls on the technical and creative skills of filmmaking through Divas
Direct: Film Workshops for Girls, the Film Foundation helps create the next
generation of young women filmmakers.
About The Festival
The San Diego Women Film Foundation is hosting the 4th annual San Diego Women's Film Festival on October 5 to 8, 2006 at the Museum of Photographic Arts and The Centro Cultural
de la Raza in Balboa Park in San Diego, California. The Film Festival attracts women filmmakers of all ages from all over the world to submit to the festival and travel out to San Diego to experience the festival.
In 2005, the San Diego Girl Film Festival hosted over 1,000 audience members, 65 films from all over the world and 40 attending filmmakers. We successfully attracted an audience of diversity, including men and women aged 13 to 65 years old, that was 17 percent African American, 13 percent Asian and 24 percent Hispanic. The festival received a great deal of press in our local community of San Diego including the Union Tribune, Gay & Lesbian Time, KUSI TV and Channel 93.3 radio.
