The 6th Adelaide Film Festival took place in Adelaide, Australia, from 10 to 20 October 2013.[1] This was Amanda Duthie's first year as Festival Director (after eight years at the Australian Broadcasting Corporation and eight years at the Special Broadcasting Service during the 1990s), having taken over from Katrina Sedgwick.[2] Margaret Pomeranz and David Stratton served as the festival's patrons.[3]

Scott Hicks received the 2013 Don Dunstan Award[4][5][6] for his contribution to the Australian film industry.

The poster this year depicts Screen Worship, which celebrates work for all screens—cinema, television, phone and computer.[7][8]
