Sasha Close.
Sasha Close, one of Australia’s most respected exhibitors, has resigned as programming manager at Wallis Cinemas after 16 years with the Adelaide-based company.
Close, who finishes up on December 4, is taking up the role of program manager of the Gold Coast Film Festival. That contract position runs until May and is renewable.
After that she tells If she will serve as a consultant to Australian producers, exhibitors and the wider screen industry.
“The festival has stamped itself on the festival calendar as innovative, forward thinking, inclusive and genuinely focused on diversity,” she says.
“It is an honour to be given the curatorial reigns and I warmly welcome submissions, conversations and collaborations for the 2020 program.”
In a note to industry colleagues she said: “Whilst this has been a difficult decision, I feel the timing is right for me and I have accepted an offer elsewhere in the screen industry.
