Women's Film Institute (WFI) presents the WFI Shorts Tour. Out of 300 inspiring entries, 11 films were selected to be premiered. The diverse selection of shorts at the tour celebrates the exceptional contributions of women in the world of cinema and represents a convergence of films from around the globe, including the U.S., Italy, France and China. The tour includes an Academy Award winning short and a cross section of socially conscious films that will entertain, inspire and motivate audience-goers to take action. The films explore the search for self-discovery, the pain of love and loss, and the struggle to meet society's expectations of beauty. As well as a range of current political and social topics--from the growing threat of climate change, to the plight of an orca whale forced to live in an aquarium, to education for undocumented immigrants. http://www.sfwfi.com
THE WORKSHOP: SCARLETT SHEPARD, founder of the San Francisco Women's Film Festival and the San Francisco Women's Film Institute will lead a workshop/informational session on how to get your film project off the ground ... from finding your story to securing funding to distribution. She will focus on film projects in the beginning stages and taking them to the next level of production (with emphasis on documentary/media/social justice/activism).
