Overview
The Human Rights Arts and Film Festival will be coming to Sydney in May, and to get into the swing of things they will be holding a fundraiser in the guise of international short film night, Par Avion.
The line up includes eight acclaimed shorts from Europe, the USA and the Middle East, including Amreeka director Cherien Dabis' Make a Wish about a Palestinian girl's tenacious desire for a birthday cake. Steph Green takes an African immigrant to an Irish school in New Boy, whereas Pascale Hecquet's animated Giraffe in the Rain features a different kind of migrant and Jonathan Browning's The Job is a wry twist on Mexican workers in the United States.
Provocative, sobering and heart warming, Par Avion promises to be an eclectic mix of shorts, each of which has carved out a window on the world.
