The Australian Muslim Film Festival awaits you for 2 weeks of independent films made by Muslims, or telling stories about Muslims anywhere in the world, by anyone Muslim or non-Muslim!
Due to coronavirus unusual circumstances, Muslim Film Festival 2020 will be held in Perth theatres on 5 and 6 September, and streamed online everywhere else via Video on Demand between 5 and 19 September 2020.
We received 73 films including shorts and features this year and our judges have selected 55 brilliant films for your enjoyment.
Our second annual event of MFF was open to feature films, short films and animated films, fiction or documentary, with local and international entries from anywhere around the world.
The major criteria for entry are that films should be either:
* MADE BY MUSLIMS,
* MADE BY NON-MUSLIMS BUT TELLING STORIES ABOUT MUSLIMS,
The festival aims to promote inclusion, tolerance, friendship and introduce Muslim society’s culture and stories to a wider audience.
Our festival was founded to support and promote Muslim independent films from all around the world and will continue to do so. We recognise how difficult it is to get your film out there and find a platform where your film can reach the right audience. We aim to promote and provide exposure to these films and organise entertaining and culturally diverse sessions over several weekends across Australia’s major cities.
Our program will reflect the diversity and opportunities within Muslim communities in the West and all over the world, through fiction, animation and documentary films and our goal is to show films that the audience would otherwise have not seen, and leave a lasting impact.
