Warwick Thornton’s intriguing film The Darkside will be the only Australian film to screen as part of 2014’s Perth Festival.

A special Q&A with the Caméra d’Or winning director will be held on Monday, 24th February 2014 at Summerville. You can buy tickets here.

Ghost stories abound in Australia’s Indigenous culture, and The Darkside invites you fireside to hear these haunting perspectives on the afterlife. Director Warwick Thornton (Samson & Delilah) has assembled a collection of touching and absurd ghost tales from across the country, and by harnessing the story telling talents of some of Australia’s most cherished actors (including Aaron Pedersen, Deborah Mailman and Claudia Karvan), presents a mesmerising showcase of life-defining moments, that speak of family and how we cope with change.
