This is a Council led event.

06/06/2025 - Hurstville Library.

During Pride Month, meet with queer filmmakers from The Story Mill while they show their short films and share stories of their creative processes and careers in filmmaking.

The Story Mill is a boutique production company founded in 2019 by the dynamic and quirky duo Sophie Saville and Rowan Devereux. They've been making waves with their award-winning films, including shorts Peach and Pineapple, documentaries Inspire Me! and Making It, and their feature film Evicted! A Modern Romance, which nabbed the Audience Choice Award at the Sydney Film Festival in 2022. They are currently in development for on their next project, Murder on the Dancefloor, coming soon.

When not making movies, The Story Mill is teaming up with local brands and businesses producing a range of branded content, social videos, TVCs, and podcasts. The Story Mill is consistently pushing boundaries, quickly proving there is no limit to what they can achieve.

Join The Story Mill for a short film festival showcasing their films Peach and Pineapple, experimental visual poems about queer love in Western Sydney from Mohammad Awed, and other short films interspersed with story sharing and opportunities for questions and answers.

Peach - A socially anxious young woman manages to land herself what she thinks is a hot date, but the only problem is: she's not sure if it's actually a date.

Pineapple - After discovering her new next-door neighbour is an old flame; an older, more confident Sarah decides to pursue her again, but is the one who got away worth the wait?

This event is suitable for ages 16 years and over.
