Message from The Minister

Welcome to the 2023 Indian Film Festival of Melbourne – the biggest celebration of Indian cinema outside of the sub-continent.

The richness and diversity of Indian cinema will hit the big screen in Melbourne’s iconic venues and theatres, alongside a packed program of events and cultural celebrations.

This year’s festival is getting even bigger with the introduction of IFFM365 – an online portal that will give us access to the very best of Indian cinema all year round.

The Victorian Government is proud to support IFFM through our VICSCREEN strategy, which is all about strengthening our screen industry and culture here in Victoria.

Thank you to the IFFM team for helping us to realise that goal by programming such a diverse and exciting festival with IFFM 2023.

I look forward to seeing you there!

Steve Dimopoulos MP
Minister for Creative Industries
