Women's Cinema Collective

ABOUT THE CATEGORY

A category built for women behind the camera. Spotlighting films directed by women across genre, form and geography, from intimate character studies to bold formal experiments.

Curated by a jury of women filmmakers, critics and industry leaders. Short cinema, told on their own terms.

ABOUT THE LOGO

A downward triangle forms the base of the mark, the traditional kolam symbol for women and femininity. Layered squares build into a lotus shape, a nod to Saraswati, with the overall silhouette evoking a mother figure. Purple represents women internationally, with hints of yellow standing in for adornment.
