AUCKLAND: 25 August WELLINGTON: 31 August

Join us for a special evening with acclaimed Australian writer/director/producer Rolf de Heer (Bad Boy Bubby, The Tracker, Dance Me To My Song, Ten Canoes). A master of cinematic film made on a modest budget, Rolf has won the Grand Jury Prize at Cannes, the Jury Prize for Un Certain Regard at Cannes and the International Film Critics Prize at Venice. He will talk about how he has consistently made feature films for the international art house market, while developing a voice that is distinctly his own.

"His films consistently challenge moral conventions and push the boundaries of the filmmaker's art." - International Film Festival of India Rolf de Heer Retrospective
