Dates for the 23rd annual Melbourne Independent Filmmakers Festival have been set for December 2, 3, and 4, 2021. As usual the event will be packed with fabulous films, filmmakers, friends, fans, food, and fun while screening local, and international films on the big screen at Premiere Theaters Oaks 10 in Melbourne. Please keep checking back for details on this exciting event.
The submission window for most films has closed. Filmmakers will be notified on September 30, 2021, if their film has been accepted to this year’s festival. MIFF’s Tie Up Loose Ends (TULE) is a separate contest with a submission deadline extended to August 31, 2021 – and the submission fee waived.
For information on the TULE contest please see the TULE competition rules here. For an idea of how this competition works, one may view a TULE sample film from 2016 here. Be sure to read the description of the film before watching for a better understanding of the competition.
*Anyone wishing to submit a TULE film should send an email to contact@melbournefilmfest.com, — DO NOT submit through FilmFreeway.
