Women’s Tales, a project created by fashion brand Miu Miu in conjunction with Venice Days, is returning for its sixth consecutive year. In addition to the premiere of two new short films, this year’s three-day program includes conversations with nine female stars that will address the state and challenges of contemporary media.

Women’s Tales begins with a screening of this year’s additions to the Women’s Tales collection. Golden Globe winner Chloë Sevigny (“Boys Don’t Cry”) — who has been very open about her own Hollywood experiences — turns the camera on comedian Carmen Lynch. According to the program’s press release, Sevigny’s “Carmen” is an “interesting take on the solitude of the performer on tour, city after city after city.”

The second short, choreographer-director Celia Rowlson-Hall’s (“Ma”) “(The [End) of History Illusion]” combines “1930s Hollywood musicals with the 1960s Cold War psychosis to produce a pastel-hued tale of fear and escapism.”

The remainder of the program is dedicated female-led conversations moderated by Penny Martin, editor-in-chief of The Gentlewoman Magazine. In addition to this year’s featured short directors, Friday’s lineup includes Zosia Mamet (“The Kids are Alright,” “Girls”) and Kate Bosworth (“Still Alice”), who just recently produced “Nona,” a film that focuses on Central America’s sex trafficking industry.

On Saturday morning, Laura Harrier (“Spider-Man: Homecoming”), Kiernan Shipka (“Mad Men,” “Feud: Bette and Joan”), and Rowan Blanchard (“Girl Meets World”) will take the stage. Harrier is set to star in HBO’s adaption of “Fahrenheit 451,” and Blanchard is one of many stars featured in Ava DuVernay’s upcoming “A Wrinkle in Time.”

Broadway actress and editor-in-chief of Rookie magazine Tavi Gevinson and Hailey Gates (“Twin Peaks”) will wrap up this year’s Conversations in the afternoon.

This year’s Miu Miu Women’s Tales will take place August 31 — September 2 in Venice.
