Over 1,000 film lovers attended the Bondi Short Film Festival on Saturday 26th November, which saw cinema brought back to the beach for the 11th year running! The Festival’s 14 finalists competed for a prize pool valued at over $10,000 but it was the controversial film, MURDER MOUTH that took out the highly converted Showtime ‘Best Film’ Award on the night.
Directed by Madeleine Perry, MURDER MOUTH sees the young filmmaker question whether killing the meat she eats will change the way she feels about the food and herself. The short film, which has been RSPCA-approved, takes viewers on a confronting journey and its graphic and challenging nature has seen it receive nationwide attention.
