Daniel Johns has spoken candidly about the car accident he was involved in earlier this year – as well as his subsequent stay in rehab, with the crash stemming from the singer’s struggles with mental health issues – and the tensions that linger between himself and his former bandmates in Silverchair.Back in March – just weeks before the release of his latest solo album, ‘FutureNever’ – Johns revealed that he’d entered rehab after being charged with high-range drink-driving, having collided with a vehicle in the Hunter region of New South Wales.

Ben Croll Now entering its 11th edition, the Venice Film Festival’s Biennale College Cinema program acts as incubator for first or second films, inviting 12 micro-budget projects on a two-week development workshop each October before funding production on four selected works. The only catch – the films have to be ready in time to screen at the next festival. “It’s a bet,” says Venice director Alberto Barbera, who also oversees the program. “But we’ve been so lucky that in 10 years, all the projects have been successful. All of them made it in time for the following year.” This year will see those microbudgets grow, as the Biennale College program ups its production grant from $150,000 to $200,000 for each selected feature, and from $60,000 to $80,000 for the one selected VR piece. Everything else will stay in place for an initiative that has proven remarkably fruitful.
