What does it mean to Fight Like A Girl?

Fight Like a Girl: A Heartfelt Reflection from WINS at the Calgary Black Film Festival


Last Friday, the WINS (Women in Need Society) team had the honor of attending the opening day of the Calgary Black Film Festival's fifth year, featuring the screening of Fight Like a Girl. We extend special thanks to our partner, Parker PR, for the kind invitation.



Fight Like a Girl is not just a movie; it’s an emotional, powerful, heartfelt narrative that celebrates resilience, courage, and the unbreakable spirit of women fighting for their place in the world. The film reminded us why empowering women matters: when women come together, share their stories, and lift each other up, incredible things happen.


As an organization rooted in supporting women and their families, WINS was especially moved by the film’s message: that the fight for equality, opportunity, and dignity is far from over.

When you have at least one person supporting you or believing in you, that is truly a blessing, and every woman’s journey is worth seeing, hearing, and honouring.


Today, May 27th, is the last day of #CBFF, and we urge all Calgarians to show their support for the Calgary Black Film Festival. This support plays a crucial role in highlighting Black stories, Black filmmakers, and the diverse talent that often goes unrecognized. The Calgary Black Film Festival is dedicated to giving distinctive cinematic voices the opportunity to present audiences with new perspectives on the world.



Let’s keep fighting, keep supporting, and keep building communities where every woman can truly thrive.

I love how AI makes photo editing so simple and fun.

The ai blur effect really helps the subject pop beautifully.

It’s amazing how quickly it can transform a regular picture into something professional.
