A smash hit at festivals everywhere, E.E.Cassidy's award winning film "We Are the Mods" starts the festival off with a bang. Cassidy perfectly captures the mood and feel of neo-Mod Los Angeles complete with motor scooters and vintage ska. Come and see the movie Filmmaker magazine called "an affectionate and good-hearted homage to not only seminal films of the 1960s but also to the heady rush of young artistic discovery familiar to any sensitive ex-high schooler." We Are The Mods is a teen drama using the familiar territory of 'good girl corrupted by the bad' while simultaneously serving as a tribute to 60s cult classics like Blow-Up and the early work of Jean-Luc Godard.

Many of us assume that there are only two genders and that being female or male follows from the sex of our biological bodies. Focusing on the art, photography and performances of four "alternative" gender artists Assume Nothing poses the questions: "What if 'male' and 'female' are not the only options? How do other genders express themselves through art?" Assume Nothing takes its title from the work of renowned NZ photographer Rebecca Swan's book "Assume Nothing" (2004), which reveals an extraordinary diversity of gender identity from the Pacific region and beyond. Assume Nothing creates "living" portraits of four artists featured in Swan's work, woven together by a portrait of Swan herself as an artist, blurring the conventions of documentary, animation, drama and gender in the process
