In this episode of Girls On Film we give you a flavour of the third Girls On Film Awards, our annual celebration of women in film which this year took place at our new home, Regent Street Cinema in London.
We launched the awards to celebrate excellence in women-focused films, and to honour women and non-binary filmmakers.
Girls On Film provides an inclusive platform for the voices of diverse women and people of marginalised genders, and we have a mission: to bring about industry-wide change, and to work toward equal representation of women in the film industry: on screen, and behind the camera.
As the saying goes: “if she can see it, she can be it”, and that’s why shining a light on the great work women are making can make a real difference.
Girls On Film host Anna Smith and co-founder Hedda Lornie Archbold hosted the awards together, and were joined by a stellar group of presenters to give out the awards, including Monica Dolan, Ronni Ancona, Sarah Gavron, Mia Bays, Col Needham, Mark Kermode, Nitin Sawhney and more.
The mics didn’t pick up all the sound as well as we’d hoped – but the pod conveys the great atmosphere in the room.
We hope you enjoy the awards!
