In the Frame

Applications now closed

In the Frame is a pilot program dedicated to Perth Festival Lotterywest Films. We’re giving up to four emerging film critics from any background the opportunity to watch and reflect on films in our 2024 – 25 season. ­Film practitioners and film lovers alike are invited to get involved!

As well as watching films, you’ll engage in critical discussions, join our Media and Industry Screenings, participate in workshops with professional reviewers and write or record your own reviews. Critics will select their favourite film in the program, awarding the In the Frame Critics Jury Prize. The winning film will then screen in the Lotterywest Films Encore Week (Mon 31 Mar – Sun 6 Apr).

In the Frame is a program that fosters inquiry, reflection and an appetite for cinema.

If you have questions about the program, please read our FAQs or get in touch with Melanie Julien-Martial, Associate Producer Film & Performance.
