Kar

A filmmaker wants to make a road movie about ‘fragile masculinity’ that announces him as an Australian auteur. Only problem is: he’s self-funding a short film. This acidic work of self-mockery is built on existential angst and meta-movie hijinks.

The Artful Dodger

It's a tale of reinvention, betrayal, redemption, and love with a twist. Jack Dawkins is The Artful Dodger, whose pickpocketing fingers have become the skilled hands of a surgeon. He is torn between an impossible love and the criminal underworld he secretly craves. This will require Artfulness.

Barons

70s surf counter culture and commerce collide as a group of best friends, inspired by the ocean, create what will become iconic rival surf brands. Little do they know that their success will tear them, and their world, apart.
