Comment: The sources are just regurgitating some publicity materials, and this draft is regurgitating them. Which, presumably, is why this reads like it came straight out of the festival's marketing team. DoubleGrazing (talk) 18:25, 17 December 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: The cited references generally do not support the statements being made. Most of the prose is promotionally worded generalities that impart little information to readers. —Alalch E. 16:37, 17 December 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: This has some wording in a promotional tone. -Samoht27 (talk) 15:50, 17 December 2024 (UTC)
IWAFF (Indonesia Western Australia Film Festival) is an international film festival focused on cinematographic exchange between Indonesia and Australia. It aims to develop cultural dialogue through the medium of cinema, emphasizing artistic exchange and cultural representation of both countries.[1][2]
 | This draft may require cleanup to meet Wikipedia's quality standards. The specific problem is: I am confused with the use of formal tone, can you please tidy up for the use of language style. Please help improve this draft if you can; the talk page may contain suggestions. |
 | This article may require copy editing for grammar, style, cohesion, tone, or spelling. (December 2024) |
Historical Context
[edit]In the context of Indonesia-Australia bilateral relations, the festival marks a systematic effort to deconstruct stereotypical narratives and create a platform for arts-based dialogue. This initiative stems from the need for more comprehensive and authentic representations of each society.
Concept and Philosophy
[edit]The initiation of IWAFF is a response to the need for cultural diplomacy between two countries that have geographical proximity but significant historical relationship complexities. The festival emerged as an alternative means to build cross-cultural understanding through the medium of cinema.[5][6]
Structure Organization
[edit]The festival is organized with a bilateral organizational structure involving curators, film critics, and cinema practitioners from both countries. The film selection and curation mechanism is designed to ensure objectivity and artistic quality.[8][9]
