The WIFF Film Finishing Fund supports filmmakers who make thoughtful and provocative films by or about women. The program was created to assist filmmakers seeking completion funds for works which demonstrate advanced, innovative skills and which relate to the goals of Women In Film. These goals include: increasing employment and promoting equal opportunities for women; enhancing the media image of women; and influencing prevailing attitudes and practices regarding women.

The only one of its kind, the WIFF Film Finishing Fund is in its 22nd year of existence and has awarded more than $1.6 million in cash and in-kind services. Cash awards range from $1,000 to $5,000. In-kind grants for post-production services vary according to the needs of the recipient. This year, ten finalists were chosen from a field of 125 applicants from 21 states and six foreign countries. Their works include eight feature documentaries, one documentary short and one narrative feature.
