Women Over Fifty Film Festival (WOFFF), now in its 7th year, celebrates and showcases the work of older women in front of and behind the camera.
The international festival takes place annually in the South East in September, and Depot in Lewes is its festival home cinema.
WOFFF creates a film community centred around older women and inspires younger people to re-think ageing and see creative potential in an often-invisible demographic.
Our virtual Best of the Fest is packed with award-winning films of witches, warriors and women who roar!
