WA Made Film Festival returns for its exciting second installment

WA Made Film Festival commences it’s second year in promoting short films, documentaries and feature films made in WA in the breathtaking Palace Cinemas Raine Square situated in the heart of Perth. 

The festival will run from March 12th to 14th 2021 and ensures an engaging and dynamic atmosphere throughout all of it’s viewings. At some of its sessions guests will be invited to attend before and after parties, events that encourage networking and Q&A discussions that will showcase some of WA’s best and brightest filmmakers and creative minds. 

“It’s an honour to be able to support local filmmakers through this festival” states Festival Director Matthew Eeles, “after a tough year, we couldn't be any prouder of the local filmmaking community”. 

After receiving a record number of submissions for 2021, Eeles believes that this goes to show local filmmakers see great benefit in having their very own film festival. 

“The WA Made Film Festival puts local filmmakers first, and that’s what matters the most. Our films won’t be programmed among international and national films like they are at other festivals. WA filmmakers and their films will be front and centre for everyone to celebrate and enjoy,” Matthew continued.

The festival will consist of 53 West Australian films including 35 premieres. These will also consist of 11 short films made especially for the festival. A special reunion event will also be held for Ship to Shore, and the launch of WA’s first smartphone filmmaking competition, Get Smart!
