Film fan recreates scene from 16-year-old film from memory for MIFF campaign

A fan of the Melbourne International Film Festival has been given the opportunity to recreate a film he watched 16 years ago, as a part of the campaign for its 65th anniversary which has the tagline ‘films that stay with you’.

MIFF’s agency McCann Melbourne called on film fans through social media to share memories of films that stayed with them from the many years of the festival. Competition winner, Keith Gove, recreated his version of Takashi Miike thriller Audition from the 2000 festival.

With no previous filmmaking experience, Keith Gove worked alongside director Stephen McCallum to direct, style and edit the memory that lives on in his mind.
