With the Solstice behind us and July in full swing, there’s no better time to curl up with a great story that moves, challenges, or simply delights you. This month, Beamafilm unveils a rich new collection of titles that celebrate everything from bold Australian classics to thoughtful dramas, conversation-starting documentaries, and quietly powerful gems.

Whether you're after something deeply human, boldly cinematic, or rooted in Australasian heritage, June’s additions offer depth, diversity, and discovery.

Shakespeare fans will enjoy stage productions of Othello and Romeo and Juliet, bringing timeless drama to life, while the beloved indie hit Love and Other Catastrophes returns with its witty chaos and inner-Melbourne ‘90s vibe, perfect for a new generation of viewers. 

For something that'll warm your heart, Paperback Hero is a must for Hugh Jackman fans around the world, while A Waltz Through the Hills stars a young Ernie Dingo in a moving tale of two runaway orphans learning to survive off the land.
