Developing Countries

This year our Developing Countries Focus includes new films made by women in developing countries as well as two special screenings looking at the representation of women in the developing world, including a special Oxfam Gala Screening.

As part of our new partnership with the Asian Women's Film Festival, we are also screening short films from the developing world. These include Geethu Mohandas' Are You Listening, showing alongside our preview of Soul Boy, and The Seven Storied House, included in the International Shorts programme.
