Join the South Australian Film Corporation and The Mercury for a special National Reconciliation Week event celebrating some of South Australia’s most talented up-and-coming First Nations filmmakers and screen practitioners.

From 10.30am to 11.30am join us in the Mercury foyer and laneway for networking over complimentary coffee and light refreshments. All are welcome to catch up with screen industry colleagues and create new industry connections.

Following the networking hour, enjoy a special in-conversation event hosted by SAFC Head of First Nations Kirstie Parker with Yankunytjatjara creative Lilla Berry, producer of upcoming feature film The Debt; Ngarrindjeri creative Josh Trevorrow, co-producer on forthcoming documentary Kumarangk; and Wongutha filmmaker Travis Akbar, writer/director/producer and head of Wirra Distribution, Australia’s only 100% Aboriginal-owned and managed film distribution company.

Through discussion and personal reflection, these exciting screen creatives will share their stories and explore their pathways into the industry, the challenges and opportunities shaping their careers, and their perspectives on reconciliation, representation and truth-telling in Australia today.

Presented by the SAFC and the Mercury.
