My Stories Matter – Reloaded (Screening)
A Paulo Castro Film. The second film in the My Stories Matter Trilogy
- 3th December 2024
- Mercury Cinema, 13 Morphett Street
My Stories Matter – Reloaded is the second instalment in No Strings’ groundbreaking trilogy, a fictional documentary series that masterfully blends fact and fiction. Directed by Paulo Castro, this arthouse production draws inspiration from the distinctive style of Swedish film director Roy Andersson, providing an extraordinary platform for our performers to shine on the big screen.
Following the international success of the first film My Stories Matter, which premiered at Mercury Cinema in February 2024 and has since screened at prestigious venues including the Perth Revelation International Film Festival, Portugal, and Germany, My Stories Matter – Reloaded premiered to critical acclaim at the end of 2024.
This internationally recognised trilogy represents a significant achievement in disability arts, with both films now screening in major European cities including Lisbon and Berlin. The series continues to gain momentum globally, with discussions underway for screenings in additional international markets.
My Stories Matter – Reloaded exemplifies No Strings’ commitment to creating fearless, limitless, boundless art that challenges perceptions and showcases the professional talents of performers living with disability on the world stage. This ambitious project marks another historic first for South Australia’s premier disability theatre company as we expand our artistic practice into innovative filmmaking that resonates with international audiences.
