The Closing Night Gala Event of the Wild Earth Oceania Film Festival will celebrate the completion of our Inaugural edition and will be kick started by a First Nations led smoke ceremony outside the cinema with a blessing by the elders of what is to come in the years and decades ahead for this Indigenous and youth led WILDLIFE Film Festival.

Join us for drinks and nibbles from 6PM in the foyer of Mercury Cinema followed by an exclusive screening of “Collision” at 6.45PM. Join our discussion on whales as we auction an exclusive whale painting by UN artist Kiril Jeliazkov with Film Director Philip Hamilton, after which we will dance the night away at our after dark party at Bank Street Social from 9PM.

Collision (84min)

Directed & produced by Philip Hamilton, and directors of photography Scott Wilson and Francis Pérez

A worldwide increase in shipping traffic is threatening our oceans, its inhabitants and the planet. Collision is a powerful feature documentary which highlights the severely under-reported issue of fatal ship strikes on whales, a threat which is endangering their very existence.

Working with leading scientists, NGO’s and worldwide authorities Collision is an accurate and scientifically based account of the realities of the harsh impact of marine traffic on ocean life.

The film not only highlights the issues but also presents clear and available solutions to encourage governments, authorities and global shipping companies to make vital changes.
