Overview
New local indie short film festival Freshflix is back for spring with more great films and food to ring in daylight savings. Created by budding entrepreneurs Jess Hamilton, Claudia Pickering and Laurs Guthrie, Freshflix started earlier this year in a backyard in Freshwater with the aim of showcasing local and international indie films, visual arts and live music.
This week's inner west screening will take place in a secret warehouse location in Redfern — to be released to ticketholders 24 hours beforehand — and will feature music from Aly Stringfellow, Ross Henry and AuxJax, food from Shiso Fine food truck and drinks from your local bottle-o (it's BYO).
Highlights from their spring film selection lineup include Spill, a film about power dynamics in the marble collecting craze of West Meadows Primary School (or, you know, every suburban Australian primary school ever), Big City, a film about a Melbourne taxi driver and his passenger, and The Plover, a cartoon about a plover standing in the way of Henry Arthur Henry achieving his hopes and dreams — namely, jumping on Angie Primarano's trampoline.
And if all that isn't enough to convince you, your Freshflix ticket even comes with a free zine by local artists and free popcorn. Sold.
Can't make it to Redfern? Don't worry, Freshflix will be coming to the Northern Beaches on Saturday night.
