About worldwide women's film festival

Our Mission

The Worldwide Women's Film Festival is supporting women in film by educating, supporting and empowering women in the collaborative endeavor of filmmaking while we shine a light on women's stories and other diverse experiences across all genders.

Our Festival

Qualified films have women in at least one key creative role:  Writer, Producer, Director, Cinematographer, Editor, Composer, or other significant key role.

All filmmakers are welcome as we are not exclusive to women only. 

Our Programs

Films under 60 minutes are considered shorts. Films 60 minutes or longer are considered feature length. All genres, narrative and documentary, will be accepted.

Stay Informed

Sign up to hear from us about due dates and other exciting news.

We Value Our Sponsors

WWFF has been supporting women in film since 2018. 2021 was postponed due to Covid-19.  WWFF benefits women filmmakers from all over the world by teaming up with local and national corporate sponsors. As interest in supporting women filmmakers grow we look forward to discussing various opportunities.

Elaine "E.E." Moe

Executive Director/ Treasurer


Kim is the point person when organizing the film festival. She, along with Eva Louis, co-founded the Women Worldwide Film Festival (WWFF) in 2017 with little more than a dream to support women in film. After 3 seasons organizing the festival she decided to cancel the festival for 2021 because of Covid-19. But the festival is back for 2022 and Kim couldn't be happier. 


Kim is a marketing professional and an actor known for her work in the local film community with several short films and feature films.

She volunteers in the local community working with other local film festivals and women's organizations. Kim is an advocate for others and loves to highlight the good things that are happening in the community.
