“South Australian Film Sampler”, the collection of 16mm films which I cut down into a 60 minute presentation (58m34s to be precise), will be getting its one and only public screening tomorrow 12 noon in Palace cinema 7. It’ll be followed by a panel discussion with the project’s producer Mike Walsh, local eccentric personality Peter Goers, film director Mario Andreacchio, and others who are not me. I managed to avoid it thankfully. I can’t imagine I’d have much interesting to say other than “Do you like how I kept in as many instances of casual racism as I could?”

I’ll post something of a post-mortem shortly.

A 60 minute documentary produced for the 2009 Adelaide Film Festival, through the co-operation of Flinders University and the State Library of South Australia. My role was as editor and compiler.

The documentary consists of a highlight-reel of around 15 films from the collection held at the library.
