Women in Film Vancouver (WIF Vancouver) was re-established by a collective of trailblazing female filmmakers who have shattered glass ceilings and continue to redefine boundaries in the global and Canadian film and television industry.
WIF Vancouver advocates for and advances the careers of women working in the screen industries — to achieve parity and transform culture.

Frances Marion, the highest paid screenwriter at the time, earned her first Oscar in 1931 for The Big House starring Mary Pickford (Canadian).
