ABOUT US

Yes She Cannes is a community-driven initiative created to celebrate, empower, and inspire women in the film industry. Founded by Faith Elizabeth, our mission is to provide a platform for women filmmakers, creatives, and professionals to connect, collaborate, and showcase their talent, particularly at the world-renowned Cannes Film Festival.

​

At Yes She Cannes, we believe in the power of storytelling to change the world. Through our events, networking opportunities, and initiatives, we aim to create a supportive ecosystem that nurtures emerging filmmakers, fosters innovation, and challenges the traditional dynamics of the film industry.

Our She Squad is made up of passionate and determined women from all corners of the film world, including directors, producers, writers, and more. Together, we aim to break barriers, increase representation, and ensure that women’s voices are heard, celebrated, and valued.

​

As part of our commitment to help women navigate the film industry and take their careers to the next level, we offer:

  • Networking events

  • Workshops

  • Community support

  • Mentorship

​

We are more than just a community; we are a movement dedicated to fostering a space where women can thrive, connect, and tell the stories that the world needs to hear.

​
"I believe that film is one of the most powerful

ways to inspire change and tell the stories that

shape our world. Yes She Cannes is about

creating a space where women in film can

come together to break boundaries and make

their voices heard. Join us in our mission to

uplift women in film, and together,

let’s create lasting change."

Faith Elizabeth, Founder & CEO.

SHE STATEMENT

CODE OF CONDUCT

We have recently introduced a Code of Conduct, which we expect all members of our community, as well as our collaborators, sponsors, and affiliates, to adhere to. This Code serves as a foundation for fostering a respectful, inclusive, and supportive environment for everyone involved with Yes She Cannes.

Each year, we craft a statement that reflects our vision and goals for the future—both for our community and for the festival.

 

Our upcoming statement, outlining our vision for the year ahead, will be unveiled in early 2025.
