What kind of an arts festival would we be without films? We have scoured the shores of Lake Burley Griffin to bring you a wide cross section of documentaries, animation and shorts from local filmmakers. All films are screened at the Honeysuckle stage.
Beautiful
A recent offering from Tropfest winner Genevieve Clay. The film looks at the journey of two people with disabilities as they navigate through the challenges they’re forced to face when their relationship is displayed in public.
High Stakes
This film looks at our beautiful winter high country from the viewpoint of a cross-country skier. The snow, mountain landscapes, plants, animals and historic huts are all attractions. But with climate change, how much longer will there be snow in Australia?
Tegan the Vegan
Local filmmaker Marisa Martin from EOR Media will screen her short animation. Tegan the Vegan is a face-off between Tegan the Vegan and Elenore the Carnivore. Who will get the glory… and the boy?
