Australian Film Festival
And we thought catching some of the country’s finest cinematic works was reason enough to book tickets. In only its third year, the Australian Film Festival will offer Sydneysiders a chance to get their hands dirty in the world of film with a range of seminars, workshops and outdoor screenings. Across eleven days, Clovelly Beach will play venue to a Saturday night screening of Red Dog, starring Josh Lucas and Rachael Taylor, film editing and screenwriting classes will be held, a short film competition will be judged and a lineup of fabulous local films will be screened
Overview
And we thought catching some of the country's finest cinematic works was reason enough to book tickets. In only its third year, the Australian Film Festival will offer Sydneysiders a chance to get their hands dirty in the world of film with a range of seminars, workshops and outdoor screenings.
Across 11 days, Clovelly Beach will play venue to a Saturday night screening of Red Dog, starring Josh Lucas and Rachael Taylor, film editing and screenwriting classes will be held, a short film competition will be judged and a lineup of fabulous local films will be screened. And just to ensure there are no white spaces in the diary, Deborah Mailman and Barry Otto will be inducted into the Australian Walk of Fame and also receive plaques on the footpath outside Randwick's gorgeous old Ritz Cinema.
Film wise, book now to see Swerve, featuring Emma Booth and Vince Colosimo; LBF (Living Between F***s), featuring Toby Schmitz and Gracie Otto; Burning Man, a story about an English chef working on Bondi Beach who tries to reconnect with his son; and more. We're also hanging out for the Australian Directors Guild's Directors Panel discussion, where the likes of Kerry Armstrong, Rowan Woods and more will talk shop for a couple of hours. Plenty to look forward to, really.
