47th Festival 2000

For the first time in festival history, a pay-as-you-go model was introduced for select screenings. The subscriber model that had been with the festival since its first year showed its first signs of changing to meet modern demand. In contrast to today, where every screening has a pay-as-you go option, the earlier festivals relied upon this sense of a community, a large film society that only met two weeks a year.

71 years of cinema, conversation and community

We acknowledge Australia’s First Nations People as the Traditional Owners and Custodians of the land, and pay respect to the Gadigal people of the Eora Nation, upon whose Country SFF are based.

We honour the storytelling and culture of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities across Australia.
