St Kilda Film Festival 2014
The country's largest celebration of short-form filmmaking is back for another year.
Overview
The country's largest celebration of short form filmmaking is back for another year. Following on from its 30th birthday celebrations in 2013, the St Kilda Film Festival will light up the esplanade once more, serving bite-sized movie morsels from all around Australia and the world.
Opening night at the Palais Theatre will showcase standouts from the 10 day line-up, before the festival jumps across town to The Astor. As always, the backbone of the program consists of the Top 100 Australian Shorts, stretched strategically across 14 separate sessions. From Cannes competitors to Tropfest finalists, there's no shortage of local talent on display.
Outside of the main program, a partnership with the Palms Spring Film Festival in the US ensures a selection of international shorts, while the returning Under the Radar contest highlights films by directors under 21. There's also a music video competition, a zombie shorts marathon and costume party, plus forums with filmmakers and a variety of other industry pros.
