Melbourne Women in Film Festival: Melbourne Women in Film Festival
20 March @ 9:00 pm - 24 March @ 5:00 pm AEDT

Melbourne Women in Film Festival (MWFF) is an unmissable celebration of cinema, offering everything from daring feature films and captivating short screenings to inspiring masterclasses and lively panel discussions.
Audiences will be immersed in thought-provoking narratives, innovative storytelling and exciting new voices in cinema, all while celebrating the groundbreaking work of the women shaping the future of the industry.
From the dark humour of Jackie van Beek’s Audrey, to the rebellious heart of We Were Dangerous and the guts and gore of the Almost Midnight Marathon, there’s something for everyone. Come and discover the wonder of short films, as new and established filmmakers take audiences on a journey from evocative portraits of womanhood to experimental works dug up from the 1990s and 2000s archives celebrating the third-wave feminist and riotgrrl movements.
