Ms Edmonds was thrilled with the news saying: “It’s such a rarity that short films are given this kind of honour.” “We are so pleased QANTAS loves the film and that so many more people will get to see it.” QANTAS domestic frequent flyers will be able to access the film as part of QANTAS’ in-flight entertainment. Most recently, Tango Underpants screened at the St Kilda Film Festival 2014 as part of its Top 100 Competition, with winners to be announced on closing night, 31 May 2014.
