SHAFF Retrospective: Saturday - Block A

12A

Over the weekend of Saturday 28 and Sunday 29 November, we will be screening 20 of the very best, audience and judges favourite feature films, one from each year. The event will take place at the Showroom, hosted by festival director Matt Heason. Over the 20 years Matt has watched more than 5,000 adventure films. These are the best of the best. They will be screened in order, split into 8 manageable blocks of between 90 and 150 minutes.

Saturday Block A Programme

Cannibals & Crampons

Dir: Mark Anstice, Bruce Parry, 2006, 52mins

Two British ex-army officers set out to climb the unscaled face of Mandela--a remote mountain rising 15,400 ft. above the jungles of New Guinea. This is the extraordinary story of their trek through some of the world's most unexplored terrain.

Alone Across Australia

Dir: Jon Muir, 2007, 52mins

Jon Muir crosses Australia on foot from South to North.

Oil & Water

Dir: Seth Warren, 2008, 34mins

Oil & Water tells of the adventures of Seth Warren and Tyler Bradt, two friends and world-class kayakers who drove, petroleum-free, over 21,000 miles down the Pan-American Highway in a retrofitted biodiesel Japanese fire truck named "Baby". The film captures their passion for sustainable living practices and the humour they maintained in the face of many challenges along the way.
