Greek Student Film Festival returns to Sydney for 11th year

·

The Greek Student Film Festival returns this year to offer once more to students the opportunity to use the Greek language in creative and innovative ways, promotes group participation and confidence, and may even inspire a few filmmakers of the future.

The project in Sydney is presented by the Greek Festival of Sydney, the Greek Film Festival and the Greek Orthodox Community of New South Wales (GOCNSW).

The topic for this year’s competition is: “Mirror.” Students have been encouraged to delve deep and explore what lies beyond the looking glass. What does the reflection reveal about oneself? What secrets lie within?

Greek Student Film Festival returns to Sydney for its 11th year.

This year’s “signature item” which should be included in each film will be an HOURGLASS. Students can include the signature item any way they like, and it can form part of the main story or simply added in the background of a shot.

The competition will be divided into two categories, with three prizes (1st, 2nd, and 3rd) awarded in each category. As of this year, a new award will be included, the “Best short film – Audience Award.”

Entries will be screened at Palace Norton Street, Leichhardt, during the last day of the 2023 Greek Film Festival on October 29.
