Mouth to Mouth is a 1978 film directed by John Duigan. It stars Kim Krejus and Sonia Peat. It was nominated for three awards by the Australian Film Institute in 1978.[2]

The film was shot over four weeks in June and July 1977.[1]

Duigan later described it as "in my early period of film-making in Melbourne, the film that I value most. I feel it is closest to what I set out for - and probably was the first film that I got close to achieving what I set out to do."[3]
