The Indian Film Festival of Melbourne (IFFM) is one of the largest Indian Film Festivals outside of India.
The Festival is supported by the Victorian Government and last year was awarded the prestigious “Melbourne Award” which recognises significant contributions to the city and highlights the inspirational stories and achievements of Melburnians from all walks of life. IFFM was the first Indian event to have ever won the Award.
This year's Festival runs from the 10th – 22nd August and will have Diversity as its central core theme.
The Festival will show over 60 films from India, indie films and short films in 20 different languages.
These films, from India and the subcontinent, include over 30 Australian premieres
