FULL LINEUP ANNOUNCED!

The St. John's International Women's Film Festival is eager to announce our new Films On the Go (FOTG) series --  a program of short films from our annual Festival that we send on tour to venues across the province and beyond.

FOTG is a mix of local and international short films. We pay the artist screening fees, build the reel and send the DVD to you. You publicize it, run the event and ship the DVD back to us when you're done. Your screening can be a community movie night, volunteer appreciation event, fundraiser, or whatever works for you. We make it easy and bring the Festival to you!

If your organization would like to avail of this unique opportunity to screen independent films, please contact us.

You can host a screening between May and July 2018.
