TourismDirected by Daisuke Miyazaki | 77 minutes | 15+ | Victorian Premiere7:30pm (AEST), Friday July 10 | Q+A with Daisuke MiyazakiMissing phones, rooftop noise gigs, and a sudden dance sequence await two friends who win a trip to Singapore, as they get lost amongst the country’s tourist traps and urban sprawl. A departure from Daisuke Miyazaki’s low-key dramas about Japanese youth (Yamato and the upcoming Videophobia), Tourism is an amusing riff on materialism, alienation, and shopping centre design.Country: JapanYear: 2018Language: Japanese, English, Malay

Empty MetalDirected by Bayley Sweitzer &amp; Adam Khalil | 85 minutes | 15+ | Australian Premiere10:00pm (AEST), Friday July 10 | Q+A with Bayley Sweitzer and Adam KhalilEmpty Metal takes place in a world similar to ours—one of mass surveillance, pervasive policing, and increasing individual apathy. The lives of several people, each inhabiting poles of American social and political consciousness, weave together as each attempts to achieve some kind of forward motion, sometimes in contradiction, and always under the eye of more controlling powers. A taut thriller, the film reveals a political fantasy, an alternative reality whose characters teeter on the dull knife edge that is contemporary American politics, at the same time refusing to fall right of left. Instead, they lash out from the soul, under the radar, in an attempt to achieve what their mainstream predecessors have yet to accomplish.Country: United States of AmericaYear: 2018Language: English
