Participants were encouraged to interpret the topic as creatively as they wish.

This year’s signature item, which must be included in each film, will be a spinning top toy.

The films will be screened at the 2022 Greek Film Festival on Sunday, October 23 at 12.30pm at Leichhardt’s Palace Norton Street Cinema, where prizes will be awarded to the students. Free Entry.

The Greek Film Festival, presented by the Greek Orthodox Community of NSW and the Greek Festival of Sydney, runs from Thursday, October 13 to Sunday, October 23. Screenings will be at Palace Norton Street, 99 Norton Street, Leichhardt, NSW, 2040.
