Multicultural Film Festival x RMIT Screening

RMIT is proud to partner with the Victorian Multicultural Commission for the 2025 Multicultural Film Festival – an annual celebration of diversity, storytelling and community.

This year's Multicultural Film Festival shines a light on powerful narratives of resilience and hope, premiering during Refugee Week (15–21 June) and continuing with a series of tour dates across Victoria – including this special screening event hosted by RMIT in September.

This special event brings together eight compelling short films that explore the theme of migration, each offering a unique lens on movement, belonging and identity.

The featured films in this special RMIT x MFF screening are:

  • Echoes of Home, Director Reza Taherabadi
  • Chuparrosa, Director Felipe Godoy 
  • Outpicker, Director Le Luo 
  • Dance with Pride - A Journey of Identity Through Movement, Director Javier Cataño-Gonzalez 
  • Housekeepers, Director Kaede Miyamura 
  • You are my Tomorrow, Director Lara Köse 
  • ɣa-βɾjel 'Gabriel', Director Kevin Duran Du 
  • Still, Director Cornelius Marco 

The screening will be followed by a panel discussion featuring Le Luo (director of 'Outpicker'), Kaede Miyamura (director of 'Housekeepers') and Pinar Fontini, RMIT filmmaker and researcher who lectures in RMIT's Media program.

Join us for an insightful evening of storytelling and conversation.
