Welcome to the 41st Annual Warburton Film Festival

This year’s program features films from Germany, Sudan, Iceland, Iran, France, Britain and New Zealand, bringing together a wide range of stories and perspectives. We are especially pleased to open with But Also John Clarke (2025), directed by his daughter, Lorin Clarke, who will join us for a Q&A after the screening.

Alongside the feature films, don’t miss our “Show Us Your Shorts” competition, with winners announced on Sunday afternoon. And while you’re here, take time to enjoy Warburton, wander by the river, explore local cafés and wine bars, and join us for the Festival Dinner on Saturday evening.

Our thanks to Yarra Ranges Council, the Warburton and Yarra Junction Community Bank, and our dedicated members and volunteers.

Yarra Ranges Film Society would like to extend a welcome to new members. We screen monthly films from February to December at two locations. 2nd Tuesday of the month, the Arts Centre Warburton. 3rd Tuesday, The Memo Healsville. Price $80, $70 concession, $35 youth (under 25). Join us and enjoy films selected from all over the world. Sherry at 7.00pm for 7.30pm start. Drinks, light supper and discussion afterwards is included in membership, so join online or at the cinema.

We hope you relax, settle in, and enjoy the festival!
