Flickerfest
What could be better than a festival celebrating short film? Probably a programme celebrating thirty years of animated Australian short films!
For the first time in Australia, Flickerfest is pleased to present an outstanding showcase of the best of homegrown animation talent. Talent which has seen our animators win awards and much acclaim around the world.
Tarnation
You have to wonder what would possess Gus Van Sant and John Cameron Mitchell to get involved in an autobiographical documentary with a budget of US $218.
Tarnation details the life of Jonathan Caouette, growing up with a mother suffering from schizophrenia.
This guerrilla confessional is part documentary, part home movie, part narrative fiction.
Court of Lonely Royals
If you ever bump into maker of this feature film in a dark alley you should knife him in the guts and ask for your money back. Set in a dystopic, neon-lit Melbourne, Court of Lonely Royals is littered with ‘hipster fashion', Tabasco dildos, meter long lines of cocaine and stomach churning raw seafood yaki-soba noodles.
