Event description

Hosted by Margaret Pomeranz, this wonderful occasion reunites the masterful creative team behind Shine - including director Scott Hicks, producer Jane Scott, the film’s subject David Helfgott, and concert pianist Simon Tedeschi, who will perform live, along with other collaborators and friends of the production.

Marking 30th years since its release, this exclusive gathering brings together those who shaped the film’s legacy for an intimate conversation about its remarkable journey to the screen. The evening will culminate in a special screening of the film. 

Celebrate a landmark of Australian cinema - a film that captivated audiences worldwide, elevated national storytelling, and secured its place in history.

’Shine is utterly extraordinary...scrappy, sexy, touching and fun…among the best movies of the year’. ROLLING STONE (Nov 1997)
