25.01.2022 "one of the year’s most ferocious social commentaries" (That Shelf) This strange, unsettling, film MEMORY HOUSE was the sole Latin American filmin Cannes official line-up this year. From a white screen, an image swims up of a man dressed in a white hygiene suit in a completely white room. Inside all that white there is a black man, Cristovam, who has been transplanted to a former Austrian colony in the south. He is a lone figure in this white, white world, and as reason sta...rts to slip away, the barriers between human and animal become more and more tenuous. Get in quick, there's only two screenings across the festival - https://adelaidefilmfestival.org/event/memory-house/ #AFF #ADLFF #AFF2020 #Memoryhouse

25.01.2022 Hong Kong’s bleak future? Sometimes you have to address social issues through the lens of genres, and sci-fi has a rich heritage here.

Asha, a hitherto carefree young woman forced to find new reserves of strength as she adapts and adopts when a young girl arrives in her hideout.

24.01.2022 Vale Helen Reddy. AFF is saddened to hear of the loss of the legendary Australian singer, icon and feminist trailblazer. Reddy’s song I Am Woman inspired a generation of women to fight for change and is still a much loved anthem of formidable power and strength. AFF is proud to have supported the production of Unjoo Moon’s film I Am Woman that honours Reddy. Reddy’s inspiring story will always hold a special place in our hearts. I AM WOMAN helped reignite cinemas across Ad...elaide this year when the Australian Premiere of the film was presented in August. Hearing audiences singing Reddy’s song as they left the theatre was truly beautiful. AFF will continue to honour and remember Helen Reddy when I AM WOMAN returns to the big screen as part of the AFF program in October.

17.01.2022 What films are you most looking forward to from our Sounds Of Rebellion and Change The Status Quo strands? In our Sounds of Rebellion experience music from punk to power pop and on to grunge, the music of the last half century has risen against racism, given voice to the rise of feminism, and told countless young people that it’s alright to be who they wanna be. Our Change The Status Quo films prove that the world is changed one person at a time, and one film at a time. Here’...s a chance to be a part of that process. They confront the urgency of action on the environment, the need to maintain the feminist momentum of recent past and adapt it to the coming future, among other pressing issues. #AFF2020 #ADLFF

10.01.2022 Goodbye Marg Winterhalder The Adelaide Film Festival lost one of its great champions last week with the death of Marg Winterhalder, long-term financial manager of the festival. Marg was a truly remarkable woman and of all of her many talents and qualities it's her generosity and loyalty that stand out most for those of us who had the pleasure of working with her. ... Marg arrived in Adelaide from Perth as a single mother of two young children, Elizabeth (Frissy) and Sam. Lacking training qualifications, she enrolled at Regency Park TAFE and qualified with Honours in the Cooking Course. She went on to spend many years in a successful catering career. Hospitality, food and sharing food were among Marg's great passions, and over many years she made beautiful food which connected people and often made long working hours a lot easier for her colleagues. As a way of extending her catering career Marg became a qualified bookkeeper, and her exceptional financial skills led her to work for Arts Projects Australia and two of their projects, Womadelaide and (at the time) the Adelaide Film Festival. Marg worked for 14 years for AFF and every staff member found her kind, patient and endlessly willing to help. Marg could always be counted upon to put aside what she was doing and respond quickly to questions. She never seemed flustereda vital quality in a film festival officeand always had the right file and the important sets of figures, at her fingertips. She was an irreplaceable source of institutional and financial history for us. She will be deeply missed and fondly remembered. Outside of work Marg helped run a Charity Shop and was a dedicated and talented painter. She had a long and loving partnership with Pete Spencer for 34 years and is survived by 3 grandchildren and many, many friends. Her family, friends and colleagues have lost a great and beautiful woman. She died peacefully on 11 Sept at Flinders Medical Centre with her family present.

09.01.2022 "a marvelous piece of cinematic escapism that manages to deepen our connection to the world we all share" (Moveable Fest). For animal lovers, the documentary GUNDA takes a unique perspective on treating animals as animals and refusing to take the easy option of sentimentalising or anthropomorphising them. Executively produced by Joaquin Phoenix, the film has removed music and voiceovers, leaving stunning footage of GUNDA interacting with her piglets, a one-legged chicken expl...oring its farmyard and cows being cows in black-and-white cinematography.
