Nobody shows more Australian animation than MIAF.
The annual Australian Showcase gets festivities underway, bringing a survey of great new Australian animation to the big screen – where it looks and sounds best.
Many of the filmmakers will introduce their new films on the night. The program opens with the World Premiere of master Australian animator Michael Cusack’s brand new, poignantly beautiful The Better Angels.
