Congratulations to Alexander Watkins of South Melbourne who was selected as the winner of our Stories Retold competition.

The most creative film was judged by award winning Australian director, Clayton Jacobson. His reasons for choosing Alexander's story are summed up as follows:

'I was very impressed with Alexander's piece for Russian Roubles. Like all good story tellers, he has embellished, edited and re invented the text to create a concise and very poetic rendition of the tale. The marriage between his fine performance and the images sourced, work beautifully together to create an evocative and moving short film – a clear stand out in my opinion that lingered long after the viewing. Congratulations Alexander the film maker '. Clayton Jacobson

Thank you to everyone who took the time to enter the competition and who in turn have helped keep alive the stories of our residents from Eltham Retirement Village. Thank you also to our sponsor, O2 Networks.
