In Gympie, festival director Emily Avila delivered four days of short films in the Heart of Gold Festival. The competition finalists were first winnowed by Avila and circulated to forty groups around town to create the ultimate nominees.
It is a nicely inclusive process. The jurors were Michael Caton, who went to school in Gympie and also came back for the local launch of Three Seasons, Lucy Gaffy who won last year, writer Roger Monk and me, as editor of ScreenHub.
