Women Over Fifty Film Festival believes that older women should be seen and heard in all their glory. Founded in 2015, WOFFF is an inclusive festival celebrating older women, screening short films which are fun, fearless and real. WOFFF aims to address both ageism and sexism within the film industry by spotlighting women over 50 who are making films or whose stories are centred on screen.

Alongside the festival, WOFFF’s Moving Pictures initiative, brings short films, conversations and creative activities to people in care homes, cinemas and other community spaces.
