Metro Screen’s Mobile Unit film Our Town has been selected by the Australian Film Commission to screen in its annual Big Screen Festival.
Our Town, made in 2007, is a spirited film by young Grafton locals about the importance of the Clarence River to their lives and to their Indigenous culture.
The Big Screen festival, now in its eighth year, brings programs of contemporary and classic Australian films to regional, rural and remote Australian communities. First launched in 2001 as a Centenary of Federation project, the festival has played close to 140,000 Australians in more than 50 towns.
The screening will take place in Yamba at the Yamba cinema at 5.15 April 6th.
