The ninth annual Setting Sun Film Festival

Welcome to the Ninth Annual Setting Sun International Film Festival.

Every year the festival screens one of the largest international short film programs in Melbourne at the Sun Theatre in Yarraville. The festival receives quality, award winning films from independent filmmakers around Australia. We also honor our Westie roots by showcasing a culturally diverse program that highlights the people and places of the West.

We screen a large youth progam. Learn more about The Rising Sun program for young filmmakers.
