Just a Farmer - Free Community Movie Night
Saturday 11th October 2025
This Mental Health Month, the Shire of Northam is proud to host a free community screening of the powerful Australian film Just A Farmer, in support of this year’s theme: “Let’s Talk About It.”
Written, funded, and produced by Victorian farmer Leila McDougall, Just A Farmer is a raw and authentic portrayal of life in rural Australia. It explores the mental health challenges faced by farming communities and highlights the resilience, strength, and humanity behind the everyday struggles. With a stellar Australian cast, the film is more than entertainment — it’s a movement to raise awareness, break down stigma, and remind us that no one faces darkness alone.
This event is an opportunity to come together as a community, spark meaningful conversations, and show support for mental health and wellbeing in our region.
Food and beverages will be available for purchase at the venue.
Let’s talk about it. Let’s support each other. Let’s make a difference.
