Festival Filministes
The mission of the Filministes Festival is to showcase cinematic works that directly or indirectly address gender and feminist issues. The program is entirely dedicated to women, non-binary people and all those who are underrepresented in the film industry, whether it is in front of or behind the camera.
About the programming on Tënk: A selection of short films will be available from March 8 to 16. Whether you watch them comfortably on your couch or while cooking, in the bath or on your phone, in their entirety or in bits, between two feeding bottles, in the middle of the day or at night, know that we have chosen these films with love, thinking of you.
