We are excited to join forces with MIFF to present their 2024 program, reflecting our shared commitment to community and global well-being.

This partnership celebrates the intersection of film and social responsibility. By supporting this years festival, we aim to foster a vibrant cultural landscape that inspires and engages communities. Both MIFF and Bank Australia believe in the power of creativity and storytelling to drive positive change, making this partnership a perfect fit.

Together, they’re cultivating passionate and informed communities driving creativity, impact and inspiration across Melbourne and beyond. As a customer of Bank Australia, I’m proud to support their wonderful work and many initiatives to use their funds and profits to have a positive impact on our planet and community.
