Sydney Film Festival 4-15 June 2014

The Sydney Film Festival (SFF) for 2014 is well underway across multiple screens in five venues (State, Dendy Opera Quays, Event Cinemas and the Cremorne Orpheum) with the talks and industry forums held at the Hub at Sydney Town Hall (which also features a well-patronised bar). Dovetailing on the Vivid Festival, the SFF presents a wide diversity of genre of film from across the world. Often film-makers pick up a certain theme in their work from the previous few years of work before bringing the finished product to the screen however at this year's SFF, a common perspective or sentiment is hard to detect perhaps reflecting the uncertainty across the globe at present.
