Nunga Screen, held annually between Reconciliation Week and NAIDOC Week is a free short film showcase that shares and celebrates First Nations culture, stories and language, through film culture.

Formerly known as Black Screen, Nunga Screen features an entertaining program of independent short films for all ages from emerging to the more established film-makers.

Inspiring documentaries, compelling tales, dramas, animation, contemporary to traditional storytelling – this film event is dedicated to bringing communities together to share in culture and engage in conversation with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.

The curated program of short films is rolled out across South Australia to more than 20 regional venues and communities from cinemas to country halls to outdoor theatres. A schools program is catered for with appropriate age and curricula day-time screenings.

Films are selected by a call-out for Expressions of Interest from Indigenous film-makers, or filmmakers who have produced films around the theme of reconciliation. Venues across the state are invited to host the event.

Inspired by the National Film & Sound Archive’s Black Screen program, Nunga (Aboriginal people of southern South Australia) Screen is presented by Country Arts SA and the ‘Give up Smokes’ campaign from Drug and Alcohol Services of South Australia (DASSA), with support from the South Australian Film Corporation.
