Filmink

FILMINK is a monthly film magazine from Australia, published by FKP International Exports. It was established in July 1997 in Sydney by Dov Kornits and Colin Fraser. Over the years, the magazine has undergone significant transformations, starting as a free black-and-white publication and evolving into the glossy magazine we see today. In February 2011, FILMINK made history by becoming the first film magazine globally to offer a dedicated app for tablet users, making it available for purchase through the iTunes Store. This marked another significant shift in its journey. FILMINK caters to movie enthusiasts, covering a wide range of films, from independent arthouse features to major blockbusters, with a strong emphasis on Australian cinema, providing in-depth coverage of every local release.
