We make SCINEMA free for any non-commercial venue to participate. If you want to run screenings (during National Science Week in August 2025) at your town hall, library, university society or residence, scout group or other community organisation, register your interest on the National Science Week website or email us. SCINEMA will issue a password-protected Vimeo link to play our curated program of finalist films. You may wish to augment our curated Festival program with your own local science hero to introduce, or curate your own Q&A session to follow your screening.

We also make SCINEMA free for any Australian schools, including homeschoolers, that want to use SCINEMA as a classroom experience (during National Science Week in August 2025). Register your interest on the National Science Week website or email us. SCINEMA will issue a password-protected Vimeo link to play our curated program of finalist films, and we will produce a Study Guide for teachers.

We also appreciate that you might not be able to join one of our venue or school screenings, for reasons geographical, health or otherwise, and as long as you have an internet connection, we’d still love to connect you with our 2025 program (during National Science Week in August 2025). Register your interest to be an at-home viewer by sending us an email. Note that our program is dependant on our number and quality of entrants, and we won’t be finalising our 2025 program until early August 2025.

We’re not hard to find
