Exciting new filmmaking voices from across Australia and New Zealand.

The future of local filmmaking looks bright with this collection of shorts, including an award-winning Indigenous film that explores separation from Country, a lyrical journey through memory co-created by and featuring rising star Sophie Wilde (Talk To Me, Babygirl), and a satirical look at true crime TV starring a woman who specialises in playing corpses.

Films in this package: The Body (dir. Louris Van De Geer), Faceless (dir. Fraser Pemberton, William Jaka), INFINIT3 (dir. Riley Blakeway), Interview With A Hero (dir. Andy 'Celeste' Diep), Rain Falls Still (dir. Bạch Đăng Tùng) and Womb (dir. Ira Hetaraka).
