Overview
Get a glimpse into the production of an intriguing adaptation of Oscar Wilde's savage fairytale The Nightingale and the Rose. Co-directed by two-time Archibald Prize winner Del Kathryn Barton and filmmaker Brendan Fletcher, the 14-minute animation — which won the award for Best Australian Short Film at last year's Melbourne International Film Festival — will screen as part of a three-month exhibition at the Australian Centre for the Moving Image.
Featuring the voice talents of Mia Wasikowska, David Wenham and Geoffrey Rush, as well as a unique score by singer-songwriter Sarah Blasko, the film provides the backbone for Del Kathryn Barton: The Nightingale and the Rose. Running until mid-September in ACMI's Gallery 2, the exhibition will take visitors behind the scenes of Barton's creative process, incorporating never-before-seen paintings, props from production, and a rare 1913 edition of the Oscar Wilde anthology in which the story first appeared.
