LUNAFEST was established in 2000 by LUNA, the makers of the Whole Nutrition Bar for Women, to simultaneously promote women filmmakers, raise awareness for women’s issues, and support worthy women’s nonprofit organizations. LUNAFEST events take place between October and April of each year in hundreds of venues throughout the U.S. and Canada. Inspiring women through the art of film and community fundraising, LUNAFEST is a program that expands horizons and increases awareness.
This year’s festival features 10 short films that tell different stories of women, from Jessica Yu's myth-busting documentary about the mysteries of childbirth (The Kinda Sutra) to Courtney Cox's tale of a single woman in her early 40s who realizes she doesn't need a husband or boyfriend for happiness (The Monday Before Thanksgiving). The program includes art films, quirky animation and touching documentaries which are directed by filmmakers from Australia, New York, Bulgaria and Los Angeles, and share inspiring stories, from aging and motherhood, to body image and love.
