St Kilda Film Festival

22 May 2012 - 27 May 2012

The St Kilda Film Festival will be held on the 22nd to the 27th May and in 2012 it will be in its 29th year of operation.

The St Kilda Film Festival is Australia s longest running and highest profile short film festival and for six days (starting with opening night at the glorious 2,800-seater Palais Theatre) the St Kilda Film Festival will inspire, challenge and entertain audiences from around Melbourne and Victoria with VIP events, forums and screenings.

The St Kilda Film Festival is a curated festival that screens only the Top 100 Australian short films submitted in any given year. This ensures the quality and consistency of the festivals product, and makes for a fierce competition.

More than 600 film entries were received in 2008 alone. These films provide an exciting preview into the next wave of Australian filmmaking, as well as help nurture and develop the Australian film industry.
