Screening at the Fantastic Film Festival, A Grand Mockery is an exciting example of independent filmmaking. Shot on luminous Super 8, it follows Josie, a young man leading a life of passive mundanity in Brisbane. Jason meets directors Adam C. Briggs and Sam Dixon.
Director David Noakes discusses How the West Was Lost, a documentary about the 1946 Aboriginal pastoral workers' strike in Western Australia's Pilbara region that has been digitally restored and is undergoing screenings in Melbourne and Sydney as part of Cinema Reborn's 2025 program.
