CHAPTER BREAK, 11min., Iceland, Drama
Directed by Erna Soffia
A young woman living an uneventful life goes clubbing with her best girlfriend. She meets a young man who seems to be the whole package — he’s polite, funny, handsome. He just might be the one and only? Or is he…?

THE WORLD TO MY DAUGHTER, 13min,. Netherlands, Drama
Directed by Josefine Ezinga van Asdonk
In 2020, the world will change forever due to the Corona pandemic. Olivia and her father are staying at home together during the lockdown. Her mother works as a doctor in the ICU and her father Fons is in the middle of a financial crisis. Fons has to take care of his daughter alone for the time being, while his own company is on the verge of collapse. Olivia is seven years old and finds every day that her world is changing more and more and getting lonely. Because she now spends so much time with Fons, the bond between father and daughter grows stronger every day.

THE LARK, 30min., Serbia, Coming of Age
Directed by Katarina Krstic
Iva (19) moves from her cosy home to a bustling Belgrade, where she finds her apartment in ruins. The first thing she sees after arriving is her childhood crush Vuk. That encounter gives her a painful headache and invokes blurry memories of repressed childhood trauma. Left to herself, the first time without her mother’s support, she starts testing the boundaries of freedom. Met with new challenges, she must accept newlyfound aspects of womanhood, and her past, so she can move on to a new life.

By femalefilmfestival

The irony of this festival is that its goal is to not be around in 5 years time. To eventually not be relevant because there is zero need to have a festival geared for female talent and female stories because the stories presented in Hollywood and around the world are a balanced showcase of the human experience from both sexes. Our goal is to achieve a lot of success and then fold into oblivion simply because there is no need for this festival. This festival was created by the FEEDBACK Film & Writing Festival as a simple reaction to a strong need to showcase female talent from around the world in a more profound way. When putting together the weekly festival, the administration noticed a lack of a female presence in the stories being shown at the festival. A classic example and analogy to the frustration is how the festival noticed that even the smaller roles in a screenplay were written for a man to play. There was zero reason for this in many stories. How a police officer, or a political campaign manager, for example with 3-4 lines in a screenplay was a "HE" character. Why? And these are the screenplays written by the winners! The talented one who have obtained agents and have began/beginning their careers as a writer.
