[Edited extract from public address]
Two weeks to enter your story of everyday multiculturalism. The VMC Film Festival is open for submissions and there are just two weeks left to enter a short film with your powerful story.
Films can be documentary-style or tell a fictional narrative, and films which were originally created for another competition or purpose will be accepted.
Shortlisted entries will light up the big screen at ACMI on Thursday 24 May.
In an age when identity, race, faith and immigration politics dominate global headlines, we ask filmmakers , young and old: how has multiculturalism shaped our society in Victoria?
At this critical juncture of history, what role do we want multiculturalism to play in our state’s future identity? And how do we get there?
