Short Films
Atlanta Women’s Film Festival (AWFF) welcomes films made by women, or films highlighting women through story and performance.
Screenplays
AWFF is looking to elevate the voices of women both from a writer’s standpoint and from a character standpoint. If your script is written by a female writer, or contains strong and prominent female characters, consider submitting to Atlanta Women’s Film Festival screenplay competition.
