WIFTMI AWARD
MIA, in collaboration with Women in Film, Television & Media Italia (WIFTMI), hosts the fourth edition of the WIFTMI AWARD to an Italian scripted project officially selected within the Co-Production Market & Pitching Forum of the Animation, Drama and Film divisions.
The winning project will be selected by a jury composed of professionals associated with WIFTMI who work in the development and production of audiovisual works.
The award – an editorial consultancy of professionals/associated with WIFTMI who work in the field of development and production of audiovisual works – will go to the project with the greatest potential for achievement based on criteria related to the themes of eliminating gender inequality, positive representation, balanced representation, diversity and inclusion.
The purpose of the WIFTMI AWARD is to help create connections between Italian production and the international market, which is often more sensitive to inclusive issues and more advanced in their processing.
WOMEN IN FILM, TELEVISION & MEDIA ITALIA (WIFTMI)
Women in Film, Television & Media Italia (WIFTMI) is a nonprofit association founded in the 1970s in the US whose Italian chapter was established in 2018.
WIFTMI’s goal is to promote gender equality and fight gender bias in the audiovisual industry. The Association also aims to encourage a cultural change leading to a more appropriate and positive representation of women in the audiovisual industry contents. WIFTMI hopes that such change will affect everyday behavior through the ability to shape the view of the world audiovisual content can provide.
These goals are complemented by that of creating a network of female professionals fostering dialogue and cultural exchange, also stimulating change in the professional and social positions and roles held by women.
