The top 27 films

Vote for the People's Choice Award

The quality of submissions for the 2023 Bond University Film & Television Awards (BUFTA) made it difficult for our judges to select the top 27 films. But they've managed to narrow down the nominees who really knocked it out of the park.

Take a look through the top 27 before voting for your favourite film to take out the People's Choice Award on 25 November.
