Английская Википедия:International Women's Film Festival in Rehovot
Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox film or theatre festival International Women's Film Festival In Rehovot (Hebrew: הפסטיבל הבינלאומי לסרטי נשים רחובות) is a film festival that occurred from 2004 to 2014 in the city of Rehovot, Israel. The purpose of the festival was to promote films made by women.
Background
The festival was organized by the Women in the Picture Association with support from the Municipality of Rehovot.[1]
The festival was intended as a platform for women filmmakers from Israel and abroad to create direct connections between creators, and an opportunity for audiences to see different types of films.[2] The festival also included workshops, panels, lectures, and additional events.
Four competitions were held in the festival: Best Feature (until 2011 there were three; that year, the Narrative Film award was split into Feature and Short) Best Short Fiction Film, Best Documentary, and Most Promising Filmmaker. In addition, a grant was awarded annually for the development of a full-length feature film, sponsored by the Yehoshua Rabinowitz Foundation for the Arts in Tel Aviv.[3][4]
In 2014, Rehovot Municipality decided to stop budgeting the festival.[5]
