The Montreal Women Film Festival held its latest screening on September 6th at Cinema du Parc, showcasing finalists from around the world.
The festival committee also revealed its seasonal winners, honoring films directed by women and projects featuring female-driven characters, cast, and crew from both Canadian and international productions.

Annually, Cinema du Parc hosts annual events with red carpet, photoshoots, networking, and screenings of finalist films across genres like fiction, documentary, animation, and more, all directed by women globally. Women Cinema Daily also offers international artists additional screening and marketing opportunities for films through its online platform on March 8th, aiming to promote independent women filmmakers for International Women's Day.
