We are so excited to bring you over 60 films directed
and co-directed by Women. This year's premieres,
features, and short films truly reflect the vitality
of women filmmakers from around the world! We had a
record-number of submissions this year that reveals
the growth of the festival. Our program includes a
wide range of emerging and established talent as well
as unique voices that are so often underrepresented.
The 2006 SF Women's Film Festival is a necessary step
in the advancement of women in cinema. Women directors
should no longer be left out or considered a side note
in our curriculum, film festivals, film history and
the film industry. These women prove that they can
make films, which excite and engage every viewer. For
schedule and to purchase tickets see the link below.

friends experience a penis for a single day-sunrise to

more difficult to come by as each puts her best foot
forward to meet a special someone.
The Potluck and Passion directed by Cheryl Dunye
(U.S.A, 1993, 30 min) A lesbian couple plans a
celebration of the year of their passion. It is also

uniformly happy results.

2 min) Kisses get too dangerous it’s time to call in

comfortably fit into the cookie-cutter silhouettes on
the doors of public toilets.
Pup directed by Antonia Kao (U.SA, 2005, 23 min)
