Win Tickets to Flickerfest Brisbane 2016
Nab your seats at Australia's only Academy-accredited short film fest.
Grab a dose of the world's best short films when the 25th Flickerfest International Short Film Festival comes to Brisbane on its national tour.
Kicking off Thursday, February 11 at the Judith Wright Centre, Flickerfest will see three jam-packed nights of shorts, including great local Brissie content, inspiring Australian shorts and four short films that have been nominated for an Oscar this year — Ave Maria, Shok, Stutterer and Alles Wird Gut (Everything Will Be Okay). Flickerfest is the only competitive short film festival in Australia to be both Academy®Accredited and BAFTA-recognised, so expect these films to be top tier.
Opening night on February 11 will see the 'Best of Australian Shorts' session, which includes The Meek, the story of a very small person trying to quit a very big bad habit, written and directed by Queensland-based Joseph Brumm and produced by Laura DiMaio, narrated by Myf Warhurst and scored by The Cat Empire’s Ollie Mcgill. Join opening night and you'll nab tickets to the post-screening afterparty.
Friday and Saturday night, we'll heads overseas for the 'International' programs including four short films up for Academy awards. A not-to-be-missed highlight of Friday, February 12 is Balcony, winner of the Flickerfest Award for Best International Short Film, a powerful story set in a neighbourhood rife with racial tension. Then, on Saturday, February 12, it's the second 'International' program, with Alles Wird Gut (Everything Will Be Okay) which received a special mention from the Flickerfest jury for Best International Short Film, and sweet UK romantic comedy Stutterer — both nominated for Academy awards.
Flickerfest is happening over February 11-13 at the Judith Wright Centre. Thanks to Flickerfest, we have a double pass to give away for each night. To be in the running, subscribe to the Concrete Playground newsletter and then email us with your name and address at win.brisbane@
