Introducing the Film (& performances) Line-up for the Homebake 2011 Cinema Pavilion
'Our Homebake 2011 Cinema Pavilion promises to be the most exciting exhibition of Australian and New Zealand film-making talent we've ever put together. Our Homebake Cinema Pavilion has always been about honouring a charter that recognises and promotes fresh local talent and placing it all before an entertainment loving audience. We like to think we're doing our bit for the Australian film industry and, in particular, for those on the up and up. Since 2000, we've had short films from filmmakers who have gone on to establish themselves as prominent and highly successful feature feature film directors, both here and overseas.
The Homebake Cinema Pavilion, unlike the major competitive film festivals in Australia, is not an awards-based festival with a first run eligibility criteria - it is simply a showcase of the most exciting work out there, the best of the best, and, as such, we are able to access films that have already taken awards at many of the most prestigious festivals both locally and around the world. This years program includes films which have taken, or been nominated for major awards at Cannes, Sundance, Berlin, Montreal, Edinburgh, Aspen, St Petersburg, Tropfest, Sydney and Melbourne International Film Festivals, London, Chicago, Venice, Toronto, the list goes on and on...
Every film selected is a standout for one reason or another - and we take enormous care and pride in the selection process. For a full list of films and filmmakers, please see below.... however most excitingly, The Homebake Cinema Pavilion is once again located in the grand interior of the Pavilion on the Park (North/East Corner of The Domain). With extra screens, extra seating and a much larger set up than we've ever had - 2011 promises to be our best year yet.'
