Each year, iAWW collaborates with leading industry partners to support emerging voices in cinema. The iAWW Film Fund provides crucial development support to an emerging screenwriter, director, or producer working on a feature-length project — fiction or non-fiction — with strong female-centric themes.

The fund was established to champion talented filmmakers whose projects have already gained recognition at respected film labs, workshops, or co-production markets worldwide, offering them the resources to bring their stories closer to completion.

Submissions for the next film fund open April, 2026.
