About

Join us for a celebration of independent filmmaking from the South Pacific territory of New Caledonia. Continuing the Australian Cinémathèque’s ongoing exploration of regional filmmaking communities, these short films showcase a selection of the exciting creative voices emerging from New Caledonia.

Screening a few days following New Caledonia’s ‘Citizenship Day’ – which celebrates the territory’s unique identity, diverse cultures and peoples – the films are presented in a mix of French and Kanak indigenous languages, with English subtitles.

This event is sponsored by the Government of New Caledonia and its Delegation in Australia, in partnership with Alliance Française de Brisbane, Ambassade de France en Australie, Centre de Rencontres et d'Echanges Internationaux du Pacifique (CREIPAC), and Association Calédonienne des Producteurs de Fiction (ACPF).
