Women In Motion: celebrating women in cinema

Launched in 2015 by Kering, in partnership with the Festival de Cannes, the Women In Motion program shines a light on women in cinema. Guided by an ambition to shift perspectives, this year sees Women In Motion celebrate 10 years of commitment and initiatives to champion gender equality in arts and culture.

From May 12 to 23, 2026, Kering, through its Women In Motion program, returns to Cannes for the 79th edition of the Festival. For the 11th consecutive year since signing its partnership with this landmark cinema event, Women In Motion continues its mission of shining a spotlight on women in film, through its Talks and Awards.
