Nevada Women's Film Festival is an annual film festival in Las Vegas, Nevada.
History College of Southern Nevada film professor Nikki Corda founded the festival in 2015. In its inaugural year, 730 films from over 70 countries were submitted and 35 were selected, and the event was only for one day.
The festival held most screening events at the Origen Museum at Springs Preserve. Corda said the festival uses the Bechdel test when selecting narrative films. In 2019, the festival screened 45 films from 10 countries. In 2020, it went virtual because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
