How did it start?

Three lovers of Australia and good cinema decided to bring the best contemporary australian movies from Down Under to Prague and Bratislava. Films that will introduce the fascinating continent, its culture and society to european viewers. The pilot edition of Aussie Film Fest was held in 2014 in the Lucerna Cinema in Prague. The festival team is growing and we are happy to have the possibility to promote the films in Slovakia.

What is our goal?

Get our event on the cultural map of Prague and Bratislava. Bring the best of what has been filmed in Australia in recent years. Entertain people, who dream of visiting Australia, as well as those, who already have been "Down there". Give all people who like Australia chance to meet and share their experiences and knowledge about Aussie society and culture.

Details

The Australian film festival will screen current Australian films that will present Australia as a modern, multicultural continent with a unique tradition of aboriginal culture, not as a backwards country limited to Crocodile Dundee, Mad Max, beaches and sharks. The program contains also films produced by aboriginal directors, whose numbers continue rising. These films will help Czech and Slovak viewers learn more who are original inhabitants of Australia, how rich their culture is, how far back into history their tradition reaches and what are its specifics unknown to other cultures. On the other hand, the showcase will also contain films whose wide spectrum of stories talk about the lives of current Australians.

... And then some

Before we meet in the cinema at the Aussie Film Fest 2015 you can feel Australia from the photo exhibition in Lucerna café or at the cinema Mladosť in Bratislava. During all screenings in Prague there will be children's corner where professionals will take care of your children – thanks to collaboration with NGO EDA – Raná péče.

About us

Aussie Film Fest was founded by Martina Vacková, its current director, dramaturge and co-producer of the Czech and Slovak Film Festival in Australia. Martina lived in Sydney for eight years, where she worked in public radio station. As a journalist she regularly attends prestigious film festivals in Cannes, Berlin and Karlovy Vary. French magazine Paris Match published an interview with Martina and called her "Passengers Czech" and perspective european journalist. Martina cooperates with producer, Silvia Panáková from Bratislava, co-producing a festival of Czech and Slovak film in Australia. In 2014 the pair joined Markéta Vozková, editor-in-chief of online magazine Kulturio.cz, Markéta fell in love with Australia while she stayed there in 2009. This trio has decided to organize a film festival in Prague and show the best of Australia through unforgettable visual experiences. Culture of man is obviously better than his gold!

Why are we doing this?

Aussie Film Fest is a unique opportunity to present Australian cinema and country with a different lifestyle and culture not only to a wide Czech and Slovak audience, but also to students of film and art schools who come to study in the Czech Republic and Slovakia from all over Europe.
