What to expect
Experience extraordinary cinema when the Travelling Film Festival returns to Townsville
The Opening Night film is the must-see hit Aussie made documentary Whistle which follows all the quirks, egos and soaring notes of the World Whistling Championships.
Townsville Audiences will be some of the first in the world to see some of the biggest films of the year including the two biggest award winners out of Cannes; Palme d'Or winner Fjord starring Oscar nominees Renate Reinsve and Sebastian Stan, and Grand Prix winner Minotaur - the searing Russian thriller which also won the Sydney Film Festival Official Competition.
Plus Oscar contenders La Bola Negra, the dazzling Spanish epic, featuring Penelope Cruz, Glenn Close and Julio Torres, and Polish master Paweł Pawlikowski returns with Fatherland starring Sandra Huller.
And the Mount Isa set documentary reveals the exhilarating world of rodeo in Rodeo Dreams.
These are just some of the seven acclaimed and awarded films from around the world at exclusive screenings, plus three award winning Aussie short films you need to see!
