Europe! Voices of Women in Film

A girl walks through an orchard with her head bowed.

Europe! Voices of Women in Film, an EFP programme, highlights innovative cinema by female European filmmakers. In close co-operation with Sydney Film Festival, the programme recognises new works by some of Europe's most exciting women directors and presents them in a dedicated section of the festival.

The programme is selected by Sydney Film Festival director, Nashen Moodley, and UK nominees are then supported to attend by the British Council.

To take part, applicants must:

  • be a UK female director whose film has not yet had an Australian premiere
