Returning: Flickerfest

Damian Walshe-Howling returns to present a showcase of Australia's only Academy Award-accredited short film festival.

Short film festival Flickerfest returns to Movie Extra this month.

Damian Walshe-Howling (Underbelly, Customs) is again hosting a selection of both new and classic, award-winning highlights from Flickerfest.

Walshe-Howling also goes behind-the-scenes on the art of short filmmaking and talks to high profile stars who have delved into this form. Deborra-lee Furness talks about her short film “Standing Room Only” starring Hugh Jackman. Andrew Upton and Cate Blanchett team up for short film “Bangers” and Paul McDermott’s writing and directing is highlighted in “The Girl Who Swallowed Bees”.

Held every January in Sydney, Flickerfest is Australia’s only Academy Award-accredited short film festival.

The seven part series begins on Movie Extra on Friday, 16th April at 10:30pm.
