	Important Admission is restricted to 18+ Except for: Careers in Animation Forum Kids Program Kids Club: Dog Star in the Club Felix the Cat Film classification regulations in Australia require all films to either be formally classified OR restricted to an audience of 18 years of age and over. Like most festivals, we do not have the resources to classify films, and it is for this reason alone that we are not able to admit any person under the age of 18 years to the main MIAF screenings.


saturday 19 june, 8.00pm acmi cinema 2 friday 25 june, 7.45pm - repeat screening acmi cinema 1
Admission age: 18+ (Films in competition)

Programs of the best recently released films selected from 2400+ entries received from all over the world. The MIAF International Competition screenings are the backbone of the festival line-up and your up-to-date snapshot of the incredibly diverse, eclectic and vibrant independent animation scene. In addition to 7 ‘open’ International Competition screenings, there will also be programs in competition that focus specifically on Australian talent, the digital community, the purely abstract, long form, picks from SIGGRAPH 2009, the incredible technique of direct to film or 'scratch' animation, and of course, the cult program Late Night Bizarre.
	Something Important Joao Fazenda Portugal, 2009, 7'00 A man lives enslaved by the obsession of something important he must do. Meanwhile, time passes by…
	Bookkeeper Of The Universe Andrew Gallagher USA, 2009, 4'30 The nexus between tax audits and rupturing internal organs. A film not for the faint-hearted or the fiscally irresponsible.
	Trebuchet Iris Alexandre Belgium, 2009, 4'00 Sketches, rips and mingled pencil lines abound as our stick-figure hero navigates a wild day at the paperfront.
	Hickory Dickory James Baker UK, 2009, 2'00 Up close and personal with some seriously mutant mice. A strange ride all the way to the bitter, fully cheesed end.
	Stonemason Kelemen Zsolt Richly Hungary, 2009, 6'00 A bold, black and white epic depicting the trials of those who would attempt to build the tallest castle walls.
	Fossil Memories Arnaud Demuynck France, 2009, 9'30 A small boy discovers the power of a stethoscope to open his eyes to the overbearing world he explores.
	Puffer Girl Joan Gratz USA, 2009, 13'15 From the maker of the classic "Mona Lisa Descending A Staircase" comes this elegant study of the colours of the reef.
	The Formation Of Clouds Marie-Helene Turcotte Canada, 2009, 10'00 Childhood is a private, fragile terrain in which the marks of our explorations are inscribed. A graceful, sensitive, visual poem that plays out at the border between reality and imagination.
	Madagascar, A Journey Diary Bastien Dubois France, 2009, 12'00 This animated diary draws the journey of a European traveler confronted with the local Malagasy customs, especially the Famadihana funerary traditions.
