The film, shot in one take on a Super 8 cartridge with no editing, will be screened during the Cannes Film Festival on May 20 with seven others.
The cartridge was sent to judges for the 8mm film to be processed, with filmmakers first seeing their product at the premiere.
Rumors is a short film about a man who runs a fish shop and the stories the local kids tell about him, according to Northern Illawarra. It also stars Billy Fisher of Wombarra.
