Among the highlights this year are the opening night film and Australian Premiere of Pat Collins’, That They May Face the Rising Sun, based on the internationally acclaimed, award-winning novel by Irish author John McGahern, which captures the essence of nature, humanity, and the rhythms of life in a rural Irish community in the 1980s.
This year’s program features an eclectic mix of dramas, thought-provoking documentaries, horrors, and a family-friendly animation. Several directorial debuts are included in the program, such as Claire Dix who directs Sunlight and Patricia Kelly who directs Verdigris.
