NYWIFT @ Woodstock Film Festival – Breaking the Frame – How Far Have Women in Film Really Come?
Join NYWIFT as we head to Woodstock Film Festival 2026 for "Breaking the Frame - How Far Have Women in Film Really Come?!
As the film industry continues to evolve, so too have the opportunities for women behind and in front of the camera. From the pioneers who opened doors to today’s filmmakers redefining storytelling, this conversation celebrates how far the industry has come, the progress being made, and the opportunities that lie ahead.
Through personal experiences and industry insights, leading filmmakers will explore the changing landscape for women in film, the conversations that can help move the industry forward, and how the next generation can continue breaking the frame and creating new possibilities for women in the industry.
Panelists include Patricia Arquette, Gina Gershon, Debra Granik, and Rachel Grady. Moderated by NYWIFT CEO Cynthia Lopez. Introduction by NYWIFT Board President Kim Jackson.
