Host Stuart Wright talks with Rowan Woods about some of programming thoughts behind 2018's East End Film Festival.

Over a third of the films are made by female filmmakers.
Five of the eight films in competition for BEST FILM are by female directors.
EEFF prioritises itself as a platform for women in the film industry.

The festival opens 11 April and closes 29 April and is in various cinemas and venues around East London...
