An invitation from the organisers of the Bingefest film event, to set up shop in one of the most iconic buildings in Australia, was a huge opportunity for Redfern Convenience Store owner and operator Hazem Sedda. Mr Sedda set himself the task of personally operating a pop-up store in the Joan Sutherland Theatre foyer for 24 hours straight, from 11pm on Saturday through to 1pm Sunday, saying it was probably the longest shift he has ever worked.
