If you like your films quirky, freaky and a little bit weird, you’ll be happy to know that the Sydney Underground Film Festival is returning for its 17th year. The cinematic celebration of all things cult is back with a full line-up of underground films airing from September 7-10 at Newtown's arthouse Dendy Cinema.
The program boasts a bunch of films that may not be your average blockbuster, but will be sure to make you think outside of the box – afterall, cinema is subjective and open for interpretation. On opening night film buffs can catch Ukraine Guernica - Art Not War, a very timely documentary following the artists who have made it their mission to stand up against the atrocities happening in Ukraine and Afghanistan.
Other program highlights include the closing night film Onyx the Fortuitous and the Talisman of Souls which is set to be riotous romp for those with a penchant for black magic. Hippo, Lousy Carter and Poundcake are other notable features that have had impressive runs on the summer film circuit in the Northern Hemisphere.
If you’d like to inject a bit of weird and wonderful to your weekend, this will be right up your alley.
