HARVIE KRUMPET







Director: Adam Eliot, 0:22:00

Harvie Krumpet is the biography of an ordinary man seemingly cursed with perpetual bad luck. From being born with Tourette’s Syndrome; to getting struck by lightning; from having his testicle removed to developing Alzheimers disease; Harvie’s troubles seems unending! Yet, Harvie learns many lessons in life and enjoys its many fruits. He finds love, freedom, nudity and ultimately the true meaning of what it is to be human.

HIS MOTHER’S VOICE







Director: Dennis Tupicoff, 0:14:30

Originally a radio interview, Kathy Easdale’s monologue describes how she found out about the death of her son Matthew. Kathy builds a detailed and compelling account of hope, discovery and grief; breath by breath she declares her love for her son. His Mother's Voice uses the same voice twice, with two different narratives and different approaches to colour, cutting and sound, to present two views of love and death.

SMALL TREASURES







Director: Sarah Watt, 0:14:30

Pregnancy is a time of great changes. This is the story of Jane's pregnancy – of her panic at losing her identity, her joy in her unborn child, her fears for her endangered career and how she does and doesn't cope in her battles with both her hormones and her well-meaning partner. The film was a prize winner at the Venice Film Festival.

NOELENE GIBLET’S BIG SNATCH







Director: Susan Earl, 0:13:00

Noelene Giblet - old bag and formidable henpecker - loves Mulder and the X-Files. One evening while Noelene and Barry (her husband) watch her favourite show, aliens arrive and snatch Noelene away. One disastrous operation later Noelene is returned a new and very different woman, much to Barry's delight.

CHAINSAW







Director: Dennis Tupicoff, 0:25:00

Frank and Ava Gardner live out in the Australian countryside, amongst the kookaburras and the cattle. Their jobs are menial, but they are true romantics at heart. Moving between fact and fiction, Hollywood and Spain, past and present, Chainsaw is a chain of stories about romance and celebrity, machismo and chainsaws, fantasy and death. And how the natural world endures.
