The Feminist Film Festival ‘From Rosa to Simone, ’ organized by the Women’s Initiative Support Group (WISG) and financially supported by UNDP and RFSU, will take place in Poti, Georgia, from March 14 to 16. It will bring together films and discussions that explore resistance to authoritarianism, environmental degradation, and social inequality. The curated selection will showcase local and foreign films addressing systemic oppression and capitalism’s role in ecological crises.

Organizers emphasize the urgent need to address the global rise of authoritarianism, the commodification of nature, and the marginalization of vulnerable communities. As they stated in their announcement, “Today’s dominant system seeks to sever human connections, with each other, with nature, and even with our bodies. It devalues lives that do not serve profit or power, framing control and exploitation as progress.”

Festival Highlights

  • March 14 – ‘Destruction in the Name of Development’: Films from Georgia and Japan examine how exploitation of land and people is sometimes executed in the name of ‘progress’.
  • March 15 – ‘Narrating Place and Displacement’: Stories of spaces reshaped by political and economic changes.
  • March 16 – ‘Caring for Life as Resistance’: Films on community resilience and activism during crisis. 

The festival will be held at Limena Café in Poti and is free to attend.
