And with all of that comes the simple joy of settling in and watching a great movie together.

This summer, Heritage Films are thrilled to launch their Big Summer Movie Splash, a carefully curated collection of eight outstanding family-friendly films, released across the Australian summer and designed to bring people together.

THESE AREN’T JUST ANY MOVIES. THEY’RE STORIES CHOSEN WITH CARE.
WHAT YOU’LL DISCOVER

This is a summer-long celebration of storytelling, not a one-off watch. They’re inviting families to lean in, discover something new each week, and make movie nights part of their summer rhythm.

So if you’re looking for fabulous family entertainment this summer, Heritage Films are confident you’ll find it. Great stories. Big-hearted films. A few laughs. And plenty of reasons to gather everyone on the couch and press play.

Watch it at home.

RALLY CAPS

Stars Judd Hirsch, Amy Smart, and Carson Minniear. An injury derails a young baseball player’s dream of becoming a pitcher. At a sleepaway camp, he befriends a deaf catcher who helps him conquer his fear of returning to the mound.

Watch it at home.

A BEAUTIFUL CHRISTMAS GIFT WITH PURPOSE
If you’re looking for a meaningful last-minute gift, especially for the person you have no idea what to buy, the Wonder Gift Card is a beautiful choice.

It’s a year of uplifting storytelling, films that celebrate courage and faith, and content that speaks to the soul. Thoughtful, intentional, and designed to bring encouragement month after month.

This is a gift that quietly says, I see you, and I want good things for your year ahead.

In a world of great disconnect, Heritage Films is giving us a venue in our own homes to come together and make the world a better place.
