About the festival

The Northwest Film Festival accepts films of all genres. We are a film festival that cares about independent filmmakers and not about the size of your budget.

In its first year The Northwest Film Festival will screen a selection of short films hosted at the urban oasis of The Ascot Lot in Melbourne! While watching the films, choose from a range of craft beers on tap and refreshing cocktails with a selection of Melbourne's best food trucks. The Ascot Lot boasts the biggest outdoor beer garden in the North-western suburbs.

We are excited for our first year and providing a platform for short filmmakers, web series creators or music video producers to showcase their work to an excited community!

Best Film - $750
Runner Up Best Film - $500
Audience Choice - $250

Other prizes sponsored by Ozflix and Filmink.
