Cannes women
Shorts Festival
Cannes Women Shorts Festival (formerly Cannes Lumiere Shorts Festival), now entering its fourth year, is dedicated to championing bold, innovative cinema that challenges conventions and pushes boundaries. The festival places a special focus on stories centered on women’s experiences, identities, and perspectives—whether told by women or by men—and seeks films that engage thoughtfully and imaginatively with the complexity of women’s lives. By highlighting fresh, subversive viewpoints, the festival provides a platform for emerging voices and underrepresented narratives often overlooked by mainstream outlets.

Review
Thank you so much, CLSF, for selecting my short script When Stars Align as the Best Non-Produced Script. I deeply appreciate the honor.
When Stars Align has now been judged "best" in Canada and at several festivals in both the USA and in Europe. Big smiles here. :>)
