AHMAD’S GARDEN recently screened at the Adelaide Film Festival on 24 and 27 February, scheduled with the Mexican documentary, LOS HEREDEROS. Producer Kim Fairbrother, fellow Meantime Collective director Richard Vette and I attended the festival. Notable, firstly, for its strong lineup of Aussie features - VAN DIEMEN’S LAND, MY YEAR WITHOUT SEX, MY TEHRAN FOR SALE and my fav of the fest, SAMSON & DELILAH. PARKING, first feature by Taiwanese director Chung Mong-Hong, was another standout. It was exciting screening our wee short at the fest in a year with such an amazing Australian presence.

Kim and I are very excited to announce that our short, AHMAD’S GARDEN, will have its world premiere at the Melbourne International Film Festival on 27 July. I can’t tell you just how fabulous it is to screen - and premiere, no less - a film at your hometown festival. I’ve also been selected to participate in the Accelerator programme as part of the festival. Now I’m looking forward to MIFF a little more than usual.
