Congrats to two Flickerfest 2016 films awarded an Oscar®
Flickerfest Films at the Academy® Awards & Free Masterclass Perth
Huge congratulations to FLiCKERFEST 2016 alumni Stutterer and Bear Story for grabbing the Oscars® for short film and joining the prestigious list of this year’s Academy® Award winners. Stutterer, directed by Ben Cleary took out Best Short Film (Live Action) and Best Short Film (Animated) went to the magical Bear Story, directed by Gabriel Osorio. The team behind Bear Story will be receiving a Presidential welcome in Chile as the first Chilean film to win a gold statue!
We are thrilled to have Stutterer included in our 2016 FLiCKERFEST National Tour tour screening in our International Program sessions along with a number of this year’s other Oscar® nominees. Check our tour program to see when we will be coming to you.
