SUMMARY:Australian Showcase_2021
DESCRIPTION:TICKETS\nNeither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night* will stop MIAF bringing you the best new Australian films from 2021 – nor Covid 19 for that matter. Nobody screens more Australian animation than MIAF and we had a great line-up all set to open MIAF 2021 – the projectors were just about warming up when the whole show was cancelled. But it takes more than that to keep a good program down …. and here it is. And as usual, lots of the filmmakers will turn up to introduce their films. Better late than never – no better way to kick off the festival.\n* with apologies to the US Postal Service (we’ll come up with our own pledge in time for the next MIAF)\nTwo Little People – Xin Li\nTwo Little People\nXin Li\nAustralia, 3’00, 2020\nA gorgeously crafted film by one of the world’s best paint on glass animators.
