SHOWTIMES AND TICKETS

The whole family is invited as the London Australian Film Festival steps into the sunny world of Alison Lester’s iconic children’s book, MAGIC BEACH, which has been brought to wonderful life by Robert Connolly (Blueback, Paper Planes) and an array of Australian animators.

After reading Lester’s book, nine children (and one dog) find themselves transported to their own magical beaches, where their adventures are brought to life via a series of vivid animations. From stop-motion pirates and claymation duels, to undersea watercolours and hand-painted impressionism, this beautiful collection of short films explores the power and magic of imagination. Featuring the animation work of Emma Kelly, Pierce Davison, Simon Rippingale, Marieka Walsh, Lee Whitmore, Kathy Sarpi, Susan Danta, Eddie White, Jake Duczynski and Anthony Lucas, this magical film is a perfect Sunday afternoon treat for the entire family! Australian snacks and sweets will be on sale, and a raffle will be held before the screening. With thanks to Robert Connolly and Arenamedia.
