Launched over a decade ago, Mind the Gap celebrates and elevates the work of women and non-binary filmmakers. The annual MTG Summit features curated panels, speakers, and a luncheon that brings our community together for creative exchange, mentorship, and leadership development. Throughout the festival, select screenings emphasize and further the MTG mission.

The MTG Award honors filmmakers and others who have made a significant commitment to advancing gender equity in film and in our lives. And the MTG Elton Prize is an annual, unencumbered $10,000 grant in support of an early-career female or non-binary filmmaker. This year’s edition of MTG continues our mission to highlight exceptional established artists and a wave of emerging talent whose work promises to shape the future of film and our collective imagination. We hope our screenings and conversations will inspire you and we look forward to seeing you at the festival.
