MIFF Drops Its First-Ever Streamable Program, With an Impressive 113 Films – Broadsheet
There’ll be no queuing outside the cinema in the freezing Melbourne weather this year. Instead, Australia’s longest-running festival will stream world-premieres, blockbuster headliners, festival darlings and thought-provoking docos online.
For the first time since 1952, the annual Melbourne International Film Festival (MIFF) wont be happening in the citys cinemas. Instead, from August 6 to 23, the entire program of 113 films including 12 world premieres, 83 Australian premieres and 44 shorts will stream online.
