Yet again the WEFF has proved to be a successful & spectacular night for both Australian short film and the local community at the West End. Facilitated by the generous Rumpus Room, filmmakers and their passionate audience were able to enjoy a great selection of very diverse short films.
As a highlight of the evening we were proud to announce this year’s winners of the West End Film Festival:
Best Animation – Teagan
Producer Tim Brown and Directors Igor Coric and Sheldon Lieberman, the directors of ‘Teagan’ Igor Coric and Sheldon Lieberman
Indigenous Filmmaker Award – Old Mate
Producer Skye White and Writer-Director Sam Dixon
Best Film – All God’s Creatures

Brendon McDonall wasn’t able to attend the festival. During his video acceptance message he gave the audience a little insight on what inspired him to make this movie.
