With a raft of challenging, humourous and even risque films entered for
the $3000 first prize, we hope you can attend an entertaining nights
activity.

Ten short films will be shown over the night. Then the
big drumroll for the winners announcement will see a smile on someone’s
face.

The Melbourne Craft Cartel will spice it up with a number of zesty stalls in attendance. Why not
do some xmas shopping and support local craft? Yes its all about local
economies and helping them thrive!

Comedian Rod Quantock will give us a serve or two on the Great Australian Dream - where has it gone?

the aussie - US exchange rate is crazy at the moment, so all US dollar prices are super low reflecting the actual australian rate , so this is great news for those buying from Aussies in US dollars.
