The Sound of One Hand Clapping is a 1998 Australian drama film directed by Richard Flanagan, based on the novel of the same name. It was entered into the 48th Berlin International Film Festival. The film was shot in Hobart, Tasmania.

Richard Flanagan originally wrote the story as a screenplay but was unable to get it financed. He then adapted it into a novel. This attracted interest from financiers and Flanagan asked Rolf de Heer to direct; de Heer did not feel he was appropriate but said he would produce if Flanagan would do it.
