	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.


sunday 20 june, 5.30pm acmi cinema 2 saturday 26 june, 2.45pm - 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.
	The Bellies Philippe Grammaticopoulos France, 2009, 16'45 In a very industrialised world, where humans only eat transgenic food, some plates make for surprising dishes.
	Ooioo "Sol" Shoji Goto Japan, 2009, 2'45 Radical, puppet animation from one-man Japanese arts machine, Shoji Goto, who enigmatically describes his latest film as "the story of another valley of wind that the wing preaches".
	In The Air Martinus Klemet Estonia, 2009, 8'45 A miscommunication between the wolf and the humans leads to a sudden shift in the laws of gravity.
	Trolley Boy Teemu Auersalo Ireland, 2009, 4'00 Trolley Boy wonders when he lost the passion for his job. Could there be more to life than pushing shopping trolleys into stacks?
	Another Look Into Rodolfo Pimenta, Nelson Fernandes Portugal, 2007, 4'30 Perfect pixellation. A stroll through the park, a magic book, splashes of colour, flashes of inspiration.
	Nuvole, Mani Simone Massi France, 2008, 8'00 I watch the hands of my father, the clouds of my mother: I see the passing of Time that colours us with the yellow of a flower.
	Atomic Hubbub Stephen Irwin UK, 2009, 1'30 Short but extremely helpful advice on how to survive an atomic bomb – just in case you find yourself caught in the epicenter of the blast.
	Toubab Vincent Duponchel France, 2009, 4'15 Maybe we make our own luck – but sometimes dodgey African masks might just have something to do with it too.
	Mystery Music Nicolas Mahler Austria, 2009, 5'00 Where does music come from? Where does it go to? What is it when it’s not a bouncing dot or a log that has to be carried around? An elegant, understated inquiry into the origins of sounds.
	Orgesticulanismus Mathieu Labaye Belgium, 2008, 9'30 “So when you’re deprived of the ability to move, as I am, as many others are… in order to survive you need to reinvent movement” – Benoit Labaye.
	The Small Dragon Bruno Collet France, 2009, 8'15 Where's Bruce Lee when you really, really need him?
