My Melbourne is the 2025 anthology film that unites Indian directors Onir, Imtiaz Ali, Rima Das and Kabir Khan to explore the depths of Australian city's diversity. The pillars of sexuality, disability, gender and race are cemented through four stories set in Melbourne, Victoria- home to 36% of Australia's Indian migrants. Suhayla Sharif explores bridge building with filmmaking in conversation with My Melbourne's producer Mitu Bhowmick Lange AM and writers Shivangi Bhowmick, Monique Nair and Nazifa Amiri.
