The MUFF Society was a feminist community that aimed to celebrate the achievements of women and underrepresented groups in film and television.
We supported an inclusive definition of women and included trans women, genderqueer women, and non-binary people in it. (H/T)

HER-Story was a unique documentary series from The MUFF Society. Drawing from our women-led/centric film team criteria, we screened documentaries directed, produced, filmed, and/or edited by women. While the subject matter itself did not have to explore women's issues or themes, we aimed to program films covering topical issues from passionate filmmakers who are willing to share their behind-the-lens experience with our community.
