Charlie and Joel present a special episode of SWITCHCast, as they check out two
of the biggest events in Australia's cinematic calendar! To celebrate the
Melbourne Documentary Film Festival's full program announcement, we chat to the
team behind the line-up, as well as one filmmaker whose film is showing at this
year's Melbourne Documentary Film Festival.

Melbourne International Film Festival 2021
The 2021 Melbourne International Film Festival is back for its 69th year, bigger
and better than ever! With a record 40 world premieres from 283 films both
online and in cinemas, it’s exactly the kind of creative event Melbourne has
been crying out for. With today’s program announcement, Joel is privileged to
speak to MIFF programmer Kate Fitzpatrick.

The Melbourne International Film Festival runs from the 5th to the 22nd August
2021. To check out the full program and to secure passes, head to

Melbourne Documentary Film Festival 2021
The annual Melbourne Documentary Film Festival is currently underway. It’s
available Australia-wide online all July, and will be hitting Melbourne’s
cinemas from the 21st to the 31st of July.

The selection of films this year is wide and varied, with a sizeable selection
of Australian titles - including ‘Mental as Everything’, a documentary delving
into mental illness, while trying to dispel some of the myths surrounding it.
Charlie sits down with the film's director and central figure, Damon Smith, to
discuss.

If this discussion raises any concerns for you, Lifeline is available 24/7. You
can call 13 11 14 [tel:131114], or visit www.lifeline.org.au

News
▸ This year, the talk from so many awards ceremonies has been the lack of
females in the directing category - and when the same faux pas happened once
again with the Oscars, nominee host Issa Rae commented, "Congratulations to
those men." That's just the tip of the iceberg in regards to missed
opportunities - so who else was snubbed in this year's nominations? (37:59)
▸ The Academy Awards are, without a doubt, the highlight of the cinematic awards
season - but after 92 years, they could do with a breath of fresh air. So - if
the SWITCH team had carte blanche of the Oscars, what would we do to make it
more appealing? (42:12)

Jojo Rabbit, Portrait of a Lady on Fire, Jumanji: The Next Level, Cats, Sorry We Missed You, The Truth

Charlie and Ashley present a special episode of SWITCHCast, with interviews with
Travis Beard, the director of 'Rockabul', and the writer, director and star of
'Thunder Road', Jim Cummings.

Interviews
Travis Beard is an Aussie who lived in Afghanistan for seven years. As a music
lover, he was also fascinated by Kabul’s music culture - or lack of. Imagine
your favourite genre - pop, rock, R&B, country - well, there’s a good chance
it’s shunned there, and potentially punishable by death. Travis befriended a
group of locals who formed District Unknown, Afghanistan’s first heavy metal
band. He followed their growth, from their genuinely terrible first performance
through to their international success - and that footage formed the documentary
‘Rockabul’. Charlie spoke to travis ahead of the film’s Australian release.

Character studies on struggling male protagonists are a dime a dozen, but none
in recent memory have captured the hearts of audiences quite like 'Thunder
Road’. The film is a passion project for Jim Cummings, the film's writer,
director and lead actor. Ashley spoke to Jim about the stress of single-handedly
creating a feature film, and how he ended up befriending Bruce Springsteen along
the way.

Christopher Nolan and Paul Thomas Anderson, are making it their mission to get

News
▸ There’s a hoard of new streaming services looming on the horizon, ready to
compete with Netflix. The biggest contender seems to be Disney, who are
preparing to launch their own platform at the end of 2019, with a huge catalog
of content. Is there room for more on demand services on the market? And will
this start to limit the content available on existing platforms? (33:51)
