Written by Craig Silvey and illustrated by Sara Acton, the novel Runt was published in 2022 and was named the 2023 Book of the Year for Younger Readers by the Children’s Book Council of Australia. Australian schools will soon have the chance to enjoy this story on screen.

A landmark family film featuring singer, songwriter and actress Jessica Mauboy and an animated series based on the books of an AFL legend are among the ACTF-supported projects set to premiere in 2024.

A feature film based on the best-selling Craig Silvey novel Runt will soon commence production with an incredible all-star Australian cast including Jai Courtney, Celeste Barber, Deborah Mailman and Jack Thompson.
