About us:

The committee of LA Independent Women Film Awards focuses on the promotion and screening of female directors, producers, screenwriters, cinematographers, editors, actresses and all women working in film and media. The goal of the fest is to showcase the best of female talent in film & TV from around the world. The Women's Lens Screening annual program of the fest has been screening its films every year at the iconic Fine Arts Theatre in Beverly Hills and various art venues, theatres and digital platforms.

Our team consists of women in film as directors, writers, actors, and distributors working in media. We understand the importance of discovering talented independent female artists and we seek to create breakthroughs in the career of international and American female artists. The seasonal IMDb qualifying competition continues to offer seasonal promotion and screening of female talents while the annual program screens the finalists of the year in theatre. Throughout the past few years, LA Independent Women Film Awards recongnized, discovered, promoted and screened many features and shorts of all genres through its various seasonal and annual programs.
