WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?

In 1997, the feminist punk poet and experimental writer Kathy Acker interviewed the Spice Girls for the Guardian (not, as has passed into legend, US Vogue). The Spice Girls were at the height of their fame, flicking peace signs at us from every teenage girl’s bedroom wall on posters ripped from magazines. Acker on the other hand was an unapologetic weirdo in the same vein as William S Burroughs, writing books so filled with sex, incest and violence that West Germany banned Blood and Guts in High School for being too pornographic.

Under a Bamboo Sky

A tale of human connection, hope and resilience in the face of great tragedy, Under a Bamboo Sky uses new technology to bring to life an untold story of Australian soldiers held prisoner by the Japanese in WWII. Using their own words, their own voices, the film weaves the recollections of more than 60 former POWs with newly colourised archival material and new location footage to deliver a moving and revelatory first-hand account of their experience. Captured during the Japanese offensive and imprisoned in Singapore’s Changi Barracks, the film follows the years long journey of these soldiers through four countries. After bearing witness to some of WWII’s most history-defining events, they tell of returning home to families, wives and sweethearts, and of the price they paid for the trauma they endured. Shining through the horrors of war is the spirit of these men and an inspiring human capacity to find beauty in their surroundings and hold onto hope in the worst of circumstances.

Live It Up: The Mental As Anything Story

Live It Up is a feature documentary celebrating Mental as Anything, the art-school band whose irreverent humour, visual art and clever pop songs made them one of Australia's most distinctive cultural forces. Following the release of Nips Are Getting Bigger in 1979, the Mentals rose quickly from inner-city Sydney pubs to national fame, becoming masters at capturing Australian suburban life with warmth, wit and playfulness. While success came fast, they never treated it with reverence. Funny, warm and unexpectedly moving, Live It Up explores how Mental as Anything navigated fame, longevity and the pressures of the music industry while holding fast to their humour and creative spirit - revealing why their music continues to resonate today.

Through the Lens

Nestled along the Great Eastern Highway in regional Western Australia stands The Big Camera — a museum housed inside a building shaped like a giant camera. What many mistake for a novelty roadside attraction is, in fact, one of the most significant private photography collections in the Southern Hemisphere. This short documentary explores the life and legacy of The Big Camera Museum of Photography and its founder, Charles “Chic” Wadley, whose lifelong passion for capturing and preserving photographic history has created a one-of-a-kind cultural landmark. Through personal interviews, archival imagery, cinematic visuals, and historical context, the film uncovers how this extraordinary museum came to exist, why it remains vital to regional heritage, and what it tells us about photography’s power to document human experience.

occupation studies: ngayanhurra bayarral Birrarung

In this work, the artists assert the fatal link between genocide and ecocide, exposing the colonial logic of 'taming', inherent in European intervention. Video footage and field recordings of the Birrarung are layered with shredded snippets of a score composed in the 1800s, inspired by the river. By contrast, the soundscape features the voice of Jasper Cohen-Hunter, who recounts the Creation Story of the Birrarung as told by Beruk (William Barak, 1823-1903), the Ngurungaeta (leader) of the Wurundjeri-balluk.

That Half Barbaric Twang

What do you get when you cross two of Australia’s most recognised television actors with a musical wizard? A troubadour trio of conscientious ‘vagabonds’, 160 years between them, who want to bring their ‘bad ass gospel’ country music to the most remote and marginalised people in Australia. Through their larrikin humour and story telling, they are creating a new wave of excitement in Australia’s fringes, leaving behind smiles and some good ole feeling. Oh and quite a few hangovers. Along the way they meet some quintessential Australian characters, a window into the sunburnt country with its oddballs and strange country folk on the fringes of society.
