The Sydney Underground Film Festival (or SUFF as it’s commonly known) showcases quality independent and experimental films across four days and nights in September each year.
It exposes alternative and up-and-coming filmmakers by providing them a platform to show their films to the public.

Awards are given to the most outstanding films shown at the festival. Make sure you check the festival program for film descriptions and screening times. You’re bound to find plenty of films that are worth checking out. By going, you’ll be supporting the development of indie films.
The Factory Theatre, where the festival is held, has five cinemas where you can buy alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages, confectionery, and snacks. The festival also has opening and closing night parties where you can mingle with other film buffs.
You can also participate in workshops to develop your own filmmaking skills. These workshops are run by the staff of the Sydney College of the Arts at Sydney University. Again, check the festival program for workshops that interest you so you can book a place and not miss out.
