From a comic exploration of phone addiction to an ode to silent era slapstick, there is no shortage of talent among our Middle Years filmmakers.
Selected films were shortlisted from more than 100 entries overall. Final judging was undertaken by Gary Westmore, Senior Education Producer at ACMI.
Here we present all the winners and finalists in the Middle Years category:
