THE IRON WINTER – screening at the 2025 Melbourne International Film Festival

Following the world premiere at Visions du Réel International Film Festival in Nyon, Switzerland, from April 4-13, THE IRON WINTER premieres in Australia at the 2025 Melbourne International Film Festival, followed by a theatrical release across Australia and New Zealand.
In Mongolia’s coldest valley, horses mean life. But in the Iron Winter, nothing can survive alone.
For countless generations, the herders of the Tsakhir Valley have protected their horses from ferocious arctic storms by amassing a giant winter herd, nominating their bravest young men to protect it.
The daring tradition served as a brutal coming of age ritual, until five years ago, when under increasing environmental pressure, it abruptly ended. Fearful about the loss of culture, elders soon vowed to revive it. And two young friends were handed the daunting responsibility to not only protect the valley’s herd — but to save its most sacred practice.
For four months, the boys battle Mongolia’s deadliest winter on record, testing friendship and faith in a fight to keep 2000 horses alive, and preserve an ancient way of life.

THE CORRESPONDENT will be released nationally April 17

THE CORRESPONDENT is a gripping biographical thriller about the defence of the truth and the human spirit. Starring Richard Roxburgh in a career best performance and directed by Kriv Stenders (Red Dog).
When Australian war correspondent Peter Greste (Richard Roxburgh) arrives in Cairo to cover for a reporter on Christmas leave, the political temperature is high. Abdel Fattah Al-Sisi’s military takeover of the Egyptian government is all but complete. Greste, a veteran of Middle East conflict, is alert but not alarmed – he’s unaware of the depth of Sisi’s hatred of his current employer, Al Jazeera, for its reporting of the coup. From the moment he steps foot in Egypt, a plan is set in motion to arrest Greste and his crew. What unfolds is a descent into a Kafkaesque nightmare in which Greste is seen as collateral damage in the war on truth.
