ANATs Portable Worlds project knows what an open, collaborative and non-possessive bunch you Kino people are. So we want to see what happens when you work together, and yet apart, to tell a story. As always, the choice us yours; you can decide a storyline as a group then make your episode alone, or you can only respond to an episode once you receive the footage from your predecessor. It's a bit like the game of 'consequences'.
One filmmaker uses their mobile phone's video camera to shoot the start of a story, then they give the phone (or the film clip) to the next filmmaker who shoots their episode and then passes it to the next, etc. Each filmmaker can start or continue several films, so by the end of the two days we will have several multi-thread narratives.
The best of these will be shown on the big screen at the three parties during the Sydney/UK Kabaret.
Kino Sydney is the Sydney chapter of the worldwide Kino filmmaking movement. It was started by Australian non-profit company The Festivalists in November 2006. Kino Sydney runs monthly Kino Sydney short film nights as well as Kino Kabaret sessions twice a year. The films screened at Kino Sydney are all world premieres made specifically for Kino. Kino is an international low-budget filmmaking movement born in Montreal in 2000. There are now Kino chapters around the world. Australia hosts 2 Kino chapters: Kino Sydney and Kino Adelaide.
