The International Women's Film Festival of Salé (Arabic: المهرجان الدولي لفيلم المرأة بسلا) or FIFFS, is a film festival held in Salé, Morocco.[1][2][3]

Organized by the Bouregreg Association under the patronage of King Mohammed VI with the aim of promoting women's cinema and highlighting women in cinema, the festival was created in 2004[4][5][6][7][8] and was followed by a second edition in 2006. It has been an annual event since 2009[9] (with the exception of 2020, due to the Covid-19 pandemic).[10][11]

At the first edition, the jury was made entirely of women and was presided over by Moroccan filmmaker Narjiss Nejjar.[12]
