Overview

What does it mean to be you? The Art Gallery of New South Wales explores the ever-changing nature of identity in their new film series, Me, myself and I. The series, which will run alongside the 2016 Archibald Prize finalist exhibition, will showcase a new film each week from July 27 to October 16.

They've got one killer lineup in store too. Many of the films in the series are old-school classics like The Shop Around the Corner — the 1940s film You've Got Mail was based on — and, one of our personal faves, Hitchcock's iconic 1959 film North By Northwest.

But the series doesn't exclusively look to the past for answers to this age-old question of self. Also featured is the 2009 French film À l'origine — which follows the story of a professional conman — and the critically-acclaimed 2006 Iranian film Offside, a comic drama about a group of Iranian girls who disguise themselves as boys in an attempt to illegally attend a soccer match.

Screenings will take place on Wednesdays and Sundays from July 27 to October 16. Tickets are free and issued at the Gallery's Domain Theatre an hour before each screening. For the full program, visit the AGNSW website.
