I'm very excited to be one of 20 filmmakers shortlisted from more than 280 submissions for the 2017 Lexus Australia Short Film Fellowship, in association with Sydney Film Festival.

The Fellowship is the largest cash fellowship for short film in Australia, with up to four Fellowship winners receiving $50,000 each to produce their next short film in 2017, to premiere at the 65th Sydney Film Festival in 2018.

An industry panel, led by Australian actor David Wenham, will assess each finalist’s proposed short film project with the four successful fellows to be announced at Sydney Film Festival in June 2017.
