ST KILDA FILM FESTIVAL - AUSTRALIAN NATIONAL TOUR

Don't miss your chance to see this selection of the best Australian short films - coming soon to a town near you!

"The awesome shorts chosen for our national showcase offer audiences the opportunity to view some of the most innovative, cutting edge, inspiring and just plain entertaining work from Australia’s current crop of emerging filmmakers, who are literally taking the world by storm.

The explosion in digital technology has resulted in an upsurge in local filmmaking craft skills and an exciting diversity of styles and genres, ranging in scope from Nash Edgerton’s edgy black comedy Bear; a Cannes finalist this year, Bee Sting; a funny and playfully romantic slice of life comedy about the world’s most unlikely romantic triangle and The Kiss, Ashlee Page’s chillingly poetic rural drama and winner of Best Short Film at the 2011 St Kilda Film Festival."

- Paul Harris, Festival Director
