The Guild wishes to congratulate Michelle Savill (DEGANZ) whose debut feature film Millie Lies Low, will have its North American premiere at the South by Southwest Film Festival. Mark Albiston’s short film Datsun, edited by DEGANZ member Luke Haigh, will also have its North American premiere as part of the Narrative Shorts Competition.

Millie Lies Low will play in the Narrative Spotlight programme and brings Michelle back to SXSW. In 2013, her short film Ellen is Leaving won Best Narrative Short.

The Austin, Texas set SXSW Film Festival (March 11-20) will be a hybrid event with an online component.
