About me

The 1st London Feminist Film Festival took place from 29 November to 2 December 2012 at the Hckney Picturehouse in London.

The inaugural festival saw 8 screenings, over four days screening a total of 16 films from women filmmakers around the world. Each film session was accompanied by a panel discussion or Q&A featuring filmmakers, activists, academics, and arts critics.

With almost 1000 people in attendance over the four days, the 2012 London Feminist Film Festival was a success. The great responses from filmmakers around the world and from our audiences underlined the need and support for a feminist film festival in the UK and we are currently seeking submissions for the 2nd London Feminist Film Festival.

The festival aims to counterbalance the mainstream film industry’s narrow representation of women and its neglect of feminist issues by showing a season of feminist feature films, documentaries, and shorts made by women directors from around the world.

The London Feminist Film Festival is a celebration of feminist film making and showcases films by up and coming women directors as well as screening rarely-seen feminist classics. The films are feminist in their representation of women and /or their handling of feminist issues.

  • I was just about to enter my short documentary to the 2nd London Feminist Film Festival when I noticed your network invitation - a happy coincidence. I'm really looking forward to going.

  • Do you think you'll be needing extra hands for the festival's organization on D-days? I live in Lille - a Eurostar ride away - and would be happy to help if you ever need people.
