This month’s Melbourne Women in Film Festival will welcome radical and rebellious perspectives from female and gender-diverse filmmakers amid a “push back against progressiveness”, festival director Sian Mitchell says.
Since being awarded the 2022 Natalie Miller Fellowship grant, Melbourne Women in Film Festival director Sian Mitchell has travelled to France and Canada to gather knowledge on events similar to her own and establish international ties.
A series of industry experts will guide early and mid-career talent through spontaneous mentorships at a event hosted by Women in Film and Television Victoria (WIFT Vic).
Melbourne Women in Film Festival director Sian Mitchell will consult with her international counterparts on how to build opportunities for women and gender diverse creatives as the recipient of this year's Natalie Miller Fellowship.
