The IAWRT-INDIA, in partnership with the IIC Project, is organizing the 6th Asian Women’s Film Festival in New Delhi on 7- 8 March 2010.

This two day event will showcase the works of Asian women film makers in a range of genres – fiction, non-fiction, animation, television reportage. The term ''Asian'' refers to origin – the film maker can be working in any part of the world.

Past editions of the  IAWRT-INDIA Asian Women’s Film Festival also travel to many cities in India.

The  theme of   the Festival   in  2010  is  BREAKING BOUNDARIES :  SHARED SPACES.  The selection of films will  reflect how women (as film makers and/or as protagonists) negotiate, resist or document political, social, cultural, environmental, educational or economic issues.

This year’s Festival  will  include the very latest in animation to retrospectives to videos by women working at the grass roots to a selection of student films from cinema schools all over the world.

The best three student films will receive certificates of merit.

We take this opportunity to invite film makers to send in their entries by 20th Dec 2009.
