Beirut International Women Film Festival (BWFF) is an annual event held in Beirut. The festival screens films made by women or centering women, and tackles issues that particularly affect women, including gender equality, sexual identity, and domestic violence.[citation needed]
The festival was founded in 2016, with the theme "Women for Change",[1] with the goal of Women's Empowerment.[2] The symbol of the festival is the Phoenician goddess Tanith, who is a mother goddess who rules the stars and sky, symbolizing fertility and life force.[2]
