Kino Sydney is an exciting platform for Sydney's independent filmmakers, actors and technicians. These monthly screenings provide filmmakers of all levels and experience with the opportunity to bring their films to an audience outside of the selection-based world of film festivals.
Kinos work like an open-mic night for filmmakers: films are made specifically for the night, with no pre-selection. The aim of Kino is to place film makers in an ‘act now’ mindset and to shoot and show their films as a way to learn about the craft… and have a good time. The result is an unpredictable cinema of fresh ideas and unforeseen moments.
Several times each year, a Kino Kabaret event takes place. Kabarets welcome filmmakers from all around the world and host screenings every 48 hours.
