The stories we see on screen influence our lives. We want to hear stories from everyone, not just from one section of society.

The F-rating was founded by Holly Tarquini at Bath Film Festival 2014 where we wanted to highlight films which feature prominent women both behind the camera and in front of it.
Every film which is directed and/or written by a woman is awarded an F-Rating. If the film also stars women in their own right then the film is Triple F-Rated, our gold standard.
