MAYOR’S
WELCOME
It gives me great pleasure to introduce the annual Glen Eira Storytelling Festival.
From 13 June, Glen Eira City Council will present a range of events that
celebrate stories and those who tell them.
The Festival has become the centrepiece of Glen Eira City Council’s Arts
and Culture program and in this guide you’ll find exhibitions, historical tours,
films, talks, open mic sessions and even an interactive collaborative art
installation, all of which highlight the different ways we tell and share stories.
Also incorporated will be the longstanding My Brother Jack Awards with prizes
for short story writing, poetry and photography. The My Brother Jack Awards
celebrates its 20th anniversary in 2015 and to mark the occasion, there will
be a special competition category and prize as well as screenings
of My Brother Jack — the miniseries.
The Festival will be held in a range of venues including Glen Eira Town Hall,
Caulfield; Council’s Libraries in Carnegie, Caulfield, Bentleigh and Elsternwick;
local cafés, bars and other venues across Glen Eira; with events to suit all age
groups, budgets and interests.
Storytelling is a common and shared human experience that transcends
culture, language and time. Through storytelling we can come together
as a community, to share our histories, our experiences and the important
stories that have been handed down through generations.
Finally, I’d like to thank all the sponsors and supporters whose support
has made the Festival possible.

This acclaimed miniseries is based on the classic
Australian novel, a record of the changing social

Second World Wars. Set in the years following the
First World War and ending in the midst of the
Second World War, this is the story of the Merediths,
a working-class family living in Melbourne.
SUPER is an evocative and quirky exploration into a
team of SUPER heroes working in a SUPER market.
The film aims to celebrate the skills and hidden
talents shared by our community of young people
with disability, as well as highlighting the challenges
they face when attempting to lead independent lives,
particularly with regards to employment, public
transport and bullying. SUPER has been selected

Come along as a family and enjoy the magical
stories and wonderful animation of Hayao Miyazaki.
Often referred to as the Disney of Japan, Hayao
Miyazaki has crafted some of the world’s most
captivating and enduring animated feature films.
Miyazaki announced his retirement in 2014 and we
are proud to present a special family event featuring
some of his most popular works. (All films will

Studio Ghibli, the brainchild of directors
Hayao Miyazaki, Isao Takahata and producer
Toshio Suzuki, has captivated audiences around
the world with its dreamlike, fantastical animations
such as Spirited Away, Howl’s Moving Castle and
Grave of the Fireflies. This documentary looks
at how they managed such an amazing run,
and what could be next for the beloved studio.
In 2014, Miyazaki and Takahata both directed their
final films, with The Wind Rises and The Tale of the
Princess Kaguya respectively. As Ghibli celebrates
its 30th birthday, award-winning filmmaker
Mami Sunada gives us unprecedented access
into its unique, fascinating world.
Please note: this film will be screened in Japanese
with English subtitles.
The Songs They Sang tells the true story of the
musical performances inside the Vilna Ghetto,
Lithuania during the Holocaust. It explores the
resilience of the Jewish people who created
art in the face of the most horrific persecutions.
The film centres on two poets, Shmerke
Kaczerginski and Avrom Sutzkever, and the songs
composed by them and others encamped in the
ghetto. In the face of a horrendous reality these
artists refused to relinquish their culture and
brought hope to a besieged people.

Cinema Fiasco features bad movies on the big
screen with hilarious live commentary by film
buff comedians Geoff Wallis and Janet A. McLeod.
Bad movies are one of life’s guilty pleasures
and one that should never be enjoyed alone.
Cinema Fiasco has been bringing together fans
of foul films for the past six years and if you’re yet
to experience an evening of awful cinema with
Janet and Geoff, it’s high time you did. You’ll laugh!
You’ll scream! You’ll realise how important nudity,
explosions and gorilla suits are to the world
of cinema! So, for a genuinely hilarious night out,
get along to Cinema Fiasco to see Reptilicus.
Reptilicus (1961)
Denmark’s first ever monster movie!* A piece
of defrosted fossil flesh regenerates into a massive,
pus-spewing dinosaur and goes on a rampage,
trashing a good portion of wonderful, wonderful
Copenhagen. There is plenty of screaming
Scandanavians, shoddily dubbed dialogue, and
jaw-droppingly hilarious special effects. (Reptilicus
makes the original Godzilla look like something
from Jurassic Park.) Also features a bonus musical
item by two-time Danish Eurovision representative
Birthe Wilke (we don’t know why either).

Still the only one.

Curator Diane Soumilas will discuss the
exhibition themes and the work of the different
artists included in the ARCADIA exhibition.
This exhibition focuses on a forgotten artist
from the Victorian era, Georgiana Houghton
(1814–1884). Starting in 1861, and continuing
up to her death, Houghton developed a complex
aesthetic practice as a practicing spiritualist
medium, based on automatic drawing and the
perceived communication with spiritual entities.
On the basis of her experiences, she produced
a series of abstract watercolors meant to convey
important spiritual messages to humanity.
Martyn Jolly is the head of Photography
and Media Arts at the ANU School of Art,
and fascinated by the craze for spirit photography
in the late 19th century. For this program,
he will discuss forgotten Victorian era artist
Georgiana and her presence in Melbourne
via the carte-de-visite album of a spiritualist in
the collection of the National Gallery of Australia.
In most carte-de-visite albums, portraits of intimate
friends rubbed shoulders with portraits of famous
personages, but in this album, these images
also rubbed shoulders with portraits of spirits.

Learn how to craft stories from your life or from
the lives of others. Develop skills to speak from
the heart, rather than read, and deliver your story
in a way that moves and entertains. You will be
helped to identify events and characters to create a
personal narrative beyond anecdote, to a satisfyingly
shaped piece for telling. Wouldn’t you like
to step up to the mic and share a story?
The workshops will culminate in a performance
at Santucci’s Café Carnegie — see next listing.
Curated personal storytelling events have
never been so popular. In the United States
