Australian Shorts

8 items

Exciting new work from some of the nation’s most electrifying filmmakers.

A taste of the finest in short-form Australian filmmaking, this eclectic selection includes a polyamorous screwball comedy from the co-writer and star of MIFF 2025’s Best Australian Short The Eviction, a haunting look at colonial violence, and the story of a man’s obsession with a mind-controlling worm in the family backyard. Plus, the SXSW Grand Jury Award–winning short from MIFF Accelerator Lab alum Renée Marie Petropoulos.
