Welcome to the Blackwood River Film Festival, an cinematic journey celebrating the rich tapestry of storytelling woven by Australian filmmakers. As a pivotal component of the Blackwood River Arts Trail, our festival showcases the diversity, creativity, and talent within the Australian film industry.

At the heart of our event are captivating short films and feature presentations, each carefully curated to provide audiences with a unique and immersive cinematic experience. The short films serve as snapshots of the boundless creativity and innovation thriving in the Australian film landscape. These concise yet powerful narratives offer a glimpse into the minds of emerging and established filmmakers, exploring a myriad of themes and styles.

This year we have been able to offer our viewers a chance to see the short film collections from previous years so look out for these extra sessions. Presented with a passion for the arts, the Blackwood River Film Festival is a celebration of the art of filmmaking.
