 Magic Dirt | In an admirable move to support Australia's up-and-coming film makers, Magic Dirt will perform a very special show on October 28th at the Metro in Sydney. What makes this show so special is that as well as Magic Dirt, audiences will be able to view prize-winning short films from the Sydney Film School. |
The band will be supported by The Spazzys, The Nation Blue and The Fuzz, and between each act a short film will screen in the main room. The films were chosen by Magic Dirt because of their relevance to the mood of the evening and bands playing, and Adalita has provided a brief description of the chosen films to give everyone an idea of what to expect.
THE HIGHWAY MAN directed by Michael McLennan
"Ned Kelly meets Eftpos. The rebel dreams of a modern day gangster of OZ.
You almost want to be robbed by this man and his horse!"

THE PROPERTY OF COLOUR directed by Nick Warnford
"We step into the sinister, nightmarish world of an addict. His vice: Gambling. His persistent thoughts and inner voices torment his every move. What happens when he says no?"
Length: 4 minutes.
DARKNESS VISIBLE directed by Blake Mitchell
"A beautiful girl, a retractable penis, pools of blood. Seductive, intriguing, wicked. All the ingredients for a tasty short film."

SOME KIND OF LOVE SONG directed by Lauren Bayliss
"Sex, drugs and water pistols. The director takes us into the chaotic world of a group of friends who love, f**k, dance and test the boundaries of their relationships with each other."

HAVING EYES TO SEE directed by Katherine Hodge
"A dark and beautiful journey through some of the world's most enduring iconic imagery and coupled with a deep curiosity of the feminine mystique and its oppression, makes for a heady mix."
