FCCA Awards Winners Announced

The FCCA Awards for Australian Film were announced last night at an event at Paddington RSL which opened with an "In conversation with Oscar Winner and FCCA patron Adam Elliot"

 

The event was hosted with considerable humour by ABC Local Radio presenter Rod Quinn and included his annual Film Trivia Quiz. 

 

Nominees and their representatives attending included Sue Maslin, Jocelyn Moorhouse, Jeremy Sims, young actors Ed Oxenbould and Coco Jack Gilles, who also presented awards, Leeanna Walsman, Damon Herriman and Kate Fitzpatrick. . 

 

Cast and crew from many of the nominated films were also in attendance making the audience one of the biggest turnouts in recent years. .

 

Although the FCCA has only recently introduced the award for Production Design, this year the vote was the tightest of all categories. As a consequence there was a tied award.

 

Awards were presented in 16 categories.

 

All members of the national body vote in all categories, except the Feature Documentary Award for which a special panel of Critics is convened, along with guest member Nick Torrens, last year's winner for documentary. This year the award was presented by Michael Loebenstein CEO of the NFSA. The Best Feature Documentary is presented in partnership with the National Film and Sound Archive.
