Hopscotch Films

Australia's leading film distributor.

Overview

Hopscotch is Australia's premiere independent feature film distributor with a strong reputation for acquiring films that challenge, entertain and inspire audiences. Hopscotch’s very first release BOWLING FOR COLUMBINE became the highest grossing documentary in Australian history and was followed by major box office hits including, FAHRENHEIT 9/11, SOMERSAULT, TOUCHING THE VOID, MRS HENDERSON PRESENTS, PAN’S LABYRINTH, BRA BOYS, THE LIVES OF OTHERS, THE WRESTLER, EASY VIRTUE and MAO’S LAST DANCER.

Hopscotch is now in its seventh year of operation and during that time has firmly established itself as one of Australia’s most prolific distributors. In addition, Hopscotch Entertainment, its DVD home entertainment division, opened its doors in February 2004, complimenting Hopscotch’s critically acclaimed theatrical DVD releases with titles from the NewVision library, classic films, cutting edge documentaries and cult TV. In 2006, Hopscotch launched Hopscotch Productions, to allow Hopscotch to deepen its involvement in the Australian film landscape and to work with emerging and established filmmaking talent from as early as concept-stage.
