----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Norbert: Norbert is not like the other children. Born with some unusual facial features, he finds the world can be a cruel place for someone so different.

How to be Australian with Vin & Raj: In preparation for his Citizenship test, Raj learns all about Australia from a fair dinkum Aussie bloke, Raj.

Mixed Bag: Travelling from the city, a woman finds herself having to stop in a remote country town only to be confronted by her own racial prejudices.

The Job: The immigration debate just got a little funnier.

Cheeese: It is March 2003 somewhere in Iraq. Kamal and his Kurdish family are trapped in the bunker beneath their house and are desperate for help from American forces. All the while Amanc, Kamal's son, snaps pictures of his family and their appalling living conditions with his new digital camera. Running short on supplies, tempers run high, but will they be saved in time?

Bin Appetit: Bin Appetit is about the art of dumpster diving. It follows a group of individuals, young and middle-aged, who choose to eat from the rubbish bins of Sydney. They call themselves Freegans and are in the protest against the world's waste. Social stigmas are pushed aside as we celebrate an alternative approach to living.

Early Bird: A celebration of the magic of metamorphosis and the joy of riding a bike. Early Bird is a whimsical animation about commuting in our modern world.

I don't Believe in Global Warming: A satirical and hilarious animated tribute to global warming scepticism and its allure.
