Finding Vivian Maier – a reclusive nanny turns out to be one of the great observational photographers of the modern era. Great story, outstanding photos. Rosie - Roddy Doyle of Trainspotting fame scripted this moving story of a family forced into homelessness and their fight to keep their family functioning. Black Man’s Houses – Wybalena is the Tasmanian Palawa/Pakana word for Black Man’s Houses, the place where the aboriginal survivors of Tasmania’s Black Wars were sent. Climbing Blind – You’ll watch agog at the skills of this man who summits the Old Man of Hoy. He’s blind but… able, he says. One for all ages. Crescendo – Uplifting film about a group of Israeli and Palestinian classical musicians forming an orchestra. What could go wrong? Watch the news. Photograph – A love story for the ages, set in modern day India, with more than the usual impediments for true love to run true. The Olive Tree – Young Spaniard takes on the corporate giants to get back her beloved ancient olive tree for her equally beloved granddad. HOBART CALLINGAnd now it is Hobart’s turn in the limelight.
