Women filmmakers can get inspired by this years 19th Provincetown International Film Festival (PIFF) running from June 14th to June 18th, the line-up is bursting with women both in front of and behind the camera. We hear so much about the importance of inclusion and PIFF has got it right.

We are extremely proud of the fact that 50% of the narrative films in the Provincetown Film Festival this year are directed by women! This marks a record high for the festival and we cannot wait to present this exciting slate of new work, especially in a year where we're honoring two fiercely talented women: Sofia Coppola and Chlo Sevigny. Says PIFF Artistic Director, Lisa Viola.

It is so important to celebrate the success of women filmmakers and I had the pleasure of talking to Academy Award-nominated and Golden Globe-winning actress Chlo Sevigny about not only being honored with the PIFF Excellence In Acting Award but also her short film entry Kitty.
