Odesa International Film Festival joins global HeForShe movement

The Odesa International Film Festival (OIFF), an Ukrainian film festival, joined HeForShe, the global solidarity movement for gender equality founded by UN Women, becoming HeForShe’s 25th strategic partner. As part of this partnership, OIFF and UN Women Ukraine created the HeForShe Prize, a new Film Industry Office award in the Pitching category that uses gender equality, human rights, and mutual support between women and men in plot or production to select films for award consideration.
