Footy Shorts Premiere
PRESENTED BY
SUPPORTED BY
MIFF and the AFL, supported by VicScreen, present five short documentaries centred on Australia’s game.
A group of young Chinese Australian footballers come together; the first openly queer ex-AFL player steps back onto the field; a community fights for the safety and dignity of its children; a former AFLW player traces a path from her heroes to the new generation of African Australian stars; and cheer squad members prepare to face a club they haven’t beaten in a decade.
Films in this package: Carn the Chinese! (dir. Angela How), For the Boys (dir. Mitchell Withers), Invincible Spirit (dir. Mark Thomson, David Callow), KURA: An African AFL Story (dir. Akec Makur Chuot, Meg Duncan) and North Melbourne Cheer Squad (dir. Jasper Caverly, Andrew Goode).
