ScreenFest Event

Celebrating First Nations New Wave

  • Date 7 December 2021

2021 has seen the biggest slate of Australian First Nations scripted projects go into production, with seven titles in creation – the most in a single year. We bring a number of these Indigenous creators together to talk to ScreenFest audiences about creating original content representative of their cultures and identity. Panelists include Bundjalung producer Darren Dale, Gamilaroi and Torres Strait Islander writer/director Nakkiah Lui, Luritja/Warumumgu writer Danielle MacLean, and Warramunga Warlpiri Arrernte filmmaker Dena Curtis. Moderated by Asian-Australian-First Nation woman (Darumbal/Bundjalung) and Screen Australia’s First Nations Department Investment Manager, Laurrie Brannigan-Onato.
