There is no better moment for Women In Film (WIF), Los Angeles, to announce the launch of its India chapter than at the Cannes Film Festival. This initiative is part of the worldwide Women In Film and Television International (WIFTI) network, which is dedicated to promoting gender equality in the film industry.
“The Women in Films International Summit in Helsinki in September 2023 motivated me to create a similar peer group in India, ensuring that women’s voices are heard and their contributions are recognised,” said Guneet Monga Kapoor, who will lead the India chapter. WIF: India’s mission is to achieve parity and provide opportunities for women pursuing careers in the screen industries. To support its programming, an advisory council of industry leaders from across India will be established. The chapter will focus on research, mentorship, and creative labs for women filmmakers. Although WIF: India will operate independently, it will collaborate with the Los Angeles-based WIF.
