2026 is reminding me of Hong Kong's pro-democracy movement and the brutal response to it. I produced this film during lockdown from mostly materials sourced online. It was screened at the 2022 Melbourne Documentary Film Festival @mdff.bsky.social vimeo.com/agarton/like...

Here's a link to my short film Temple Lament that was shown at the UNFIX NYC 2025 Film Festival and at Melbourne Documentary Film Festival. Enjoy: vimeo.com/1037315566

Thanks everyone who came to the premier of KNOW ME at the @mdff.bsky.social (Melbourne Documentary Film Festival) last Sunday afternoon. There were tears, heart warming embraces, reunions too and discussion that flowed from Cinema Nova's foyer onto a nearby pub and into the evening back home.

Review: "Expression of Illness" screening online at the Melbourne Documentary Film Festival @mdff.bsky.social www.documentarydrive.com/review-expre...

First time seeing Temple Lament on the big screen @mdff.bsky.social Good to see the space and the detail in the film, to have a live audience, to discuss the movie at the Q&A with 3CR's Annie McLaughlin, and the young director of Verge Collection, another of the films at the session. Fun time.

A Perth filmmaker has taken out the top award at this year's Australia Youth Film Festival, held in Melbourne on Friday night. Dannon Wu, 24, won the ABC Best Overall Film award for 'Black Cockatoos: Cultural Significance,' a documentary centred on an Elders Yarning Circle.

Screening at the Melbourne Documentary Film Festival, REFLECTIONS OF COURAGE is "Distressing, powerful and thought-provoking…" according to Annette Basile's review

Review: 5 Standout Shorts at the Melbourne Documentary Film Festival @mdff.bsky.social www.documentarydrive.com/review-5-sta...

Melbourne Documentary Film Festival @mdff.bsky.social is on right now. Packed with fascinating docos. www.mdff.org.au Now in cinema at @cinemanova.bsky.social My own Temple Lament is on July 27th 10.30am session followed by Q&A. It would be good to meet folks from Blue Sky there. Sarva Mangalam!

Not long back from Whoopee Blues, first night in cinema @mdff.bsky.social A real education for me as relative newcomer to Melbourne on the wild 70s in old Prahran. Crazy iterations of the eclectic band, with a side of Circus Oz. Very impressed that Jim Conway played harp with Brownie McGee.
