This coming autumn, experience the very best of the Melbourne International Film Festival without leaving the south-east. Across three days in April, Bunjil Place’s state-of-the-art Studio Cinema will come alive with a special showcase of stand-out Australian and international films direct from the festival program.

Presented by Milligram, Australia’s premier screen-criticism incubator program is on the hunt for applicants. If you’re an emerging or early-career critic, keen for hands-on experience in a live festival context and available to attend MIFF on 6–23 August, we want you. Applications close 24 April.

MIFF 37°South Market brings together local and international film financiers/buyers and screen producers from across Australia and New Zealand for four days of pitching opportunities, screenings, modules and panel discussions. Second round applications close 8 May.
