	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.

Admission age: 18+ (Films in competition)


	Murmur Peter Byrne, Carole Woodlock USA, 2009, 7'00 A contemplation of memory and landscape blending live-action footage with abstract hand-drawn and computer-generated composite animation sequences.
	Sea Fever Daisy Gibbs, Tom Massey UK, 2009, 3'00 As death approaches, an old man struggles through the words of a forgotten poem. A lost time, a loved place…
	Rip Drip Tear Janette Goodey New Zealand, 2009, 3'45 Beautifully created in paper and ink. A visual interpretation of an atonal, string-quartet piece created by the filmmaker’s long-term musical collaborator, Clare Scholes.
	Module Pink Twins: juha & vesa vehvilainen Finland, 2008, 6'45 A minimalistic and profound study of abstract space, architecture and morality set to an adaptation of the prison blues "No More My Lord".
	Trash And No Star! Karl Lemieux, Claire Blanchet Canada, 2008, 7'00 Composed of paint and collage on 16mm film recovered from the trash. A Tribute to discarded objects and edited to the no-compromise music of Dreamcatcher.
	Need To Know Why Neely Goniodsky Canada, 2008, 1'30 An abstract, animated collage of text and printed pixels in pursuit of an answer to a big, big question.
	Night Fishing With Cormorants Betsy Kopmar USA, 2009, 4'30 Inspired by a 17th-Century Kano Tanyu painting and a starkly beautiful Akira Yoshimura novel, this work holds in equal reverence the spirit of the bird, the fish and the fisherman.
	New York Counterpoint Jean Detheux Canada, 2009, 11'15 The latest work by one of the world's most passionate proponents of visual music. A startlingly complex vista of compelling imagery.
	Unicycle Film Thomas Hicks UK, 2009, 5'30 Two unicyclists find each other in a dark forest and fall in love. The embrace, when it comes, creates a union of more than just two people.
	Line Dance David Ehrlich USA, 2008, 2'45 From one of the great living masters of abstract animation comes this meditative dance of life using a pastiche of colour and linear waves.
	bric-a-brac Aaron Wendel USA, 2009, 2'00 An animated collection of keys, coins, cassettes and other junk-drawer objects, rendered by crayon rubbings to produce a cast of characters.
	Anthropos Mathieu Tremblay Canada, 2009, 4'15 An idea peaks, a question is asked, rationality falls and landmarks fade. Tension rises, sides struggle, spaces combine and the instant passes.
	M Felix Dufour-Laperrière Canada, 2009, 8'00 A film of assemblage, juxtaposition and manipulation – small architectural structures appear and overlap, nebulas form and then disperse but not before recalling constellations and other stellar marvels.
