Critically acclaimed filmmaker, Kerry Laitala will present her luminous and phantasmagorical brand of cinema in this exclusive screening, featuring her latest work, Muse of Cinema plus a selection of earlier shorts.

Described by the Edinburgh Film Festival as "an alchemist deeply absorbed in a process", Laitala draws on "Film noir, mystical surrealism, psychoanalysis, fairy tales, a cacophony of symbols and stylistic devices which are used in the creation of these consistently enigmatic and richly crafted films"

Vladmasters are handmade View-MasterT reels designed, photographed, and hand-assembled by Vladimir.

Don't miss this one-off performance where every attendee is given a View-MasterT with disks and led through a story by a soundtrack featuring music, narration, sound effects, and ding noises to cue the image changes.

The Vladmaster makes use of toys, neglected household objects, and odd ephemera to tell 28-picture tales of train chases, missing steam shovels, disastrous dinner parties, and overly adventurous cockroaches. The clack of hundreds of viewers fills the air and mass euphoria ensues!

Vladimir has given performances across the US and Britain. Melbourne Premiere!
