Sophie Saville – Peach St.Kilda Film Festival

The St Kilda Film Festival has today revealed a dynamic and diverse nine-day
online event. For the first time, audiences throughout Australia will be able to enjoy the Festival when it
screens free online from Friday 12 June to Saturday 20 June.
Produced by the City of Port Phillip, the St Kilda Film Festival is Australia’s largest and longest running
publicly owned short film festival. A highlight of Melbourne’s screen industry calendar, the annual Opening
Night extravaganza will bring festival fans, patrons and talent online together for a preview of what’s to come.
Like each year, the Festival program will provide an insight into the nation’s short film industry, screening the
Top Australian Shorts and a number of specially curated sessions. A jampacked filmmaker development
program will return with live post session Q+As alongside live webinars covering the ins and outs of comedy,
as well as short bites delivered by long time industry partners such as the Australian Cinematographers
Society.
City of Port Phillip Mayor, Bernadene Voss said, “We are extremely excited to be able to present this year’s
Festival online. Not only does this let us keep supporting local filmmakers during this time and showcasing the
incredible talent we have on offer in Australia, but this year it is totally free for the whole of Australia to enjoy.”
Festival Director Richard Sowada says of the program, “If 2020 is paving the way for the future of Australian
filmmaking then the future is breathtaking. The sheer diversity of work, the guts and glory ambition and those
authentic voices are just great to bring to the screen – it makes me very proud to be part of the lives of these
films and these filmmakers.”
