Overview
Halfway through summer, Sydney's outdoor movie scene is in full swing, showcasing all your favourite blockbuster films at a number of locations. If, however, you think that's just one too many showings of Harry Potter to handle and you're looking for something a little different, take a look at Chinatown's pop-up cinema.
Swapping moonlight for streetlight and popcorn for dumplings, 4A's Cinema Alley will coincide with Chinese New Year festivities to celebrate the Asian-Australian cultural identity. Instead of blockbuster hits, this cinema night will showcase five significant short films plus a selection of animation shorts from filmmakers around Asia and Australia. Experimenting with black & white, 35mm and Super 16mm, each artist presents a portrait of their own city and the impact that migration and globalisation has had on them. Some stories tackle the hardships of Taiwanese factory workers and the fate of once-rural Chinese regions. Best of all, this is open-air cinema is free — giving you plenty of change to enjoy spicy pork buns throughout the night.
